What other structures of the cytoskeleton would show the same pattern of microtubules as the flagellum?

The appropriate response is cilia. Cilia are little hair-like structures on the surface of the cell. The hairs clear hair, bodily fluid, caught tidy and microscopic organisms up to the back of the throat where it can be gulped. 
Cilia are found in the coating of the trachea (windpipe), where they clear bodily fluid and earth out of the lungs. In female well evolved creatures, the beating of cilia in the Fallopian tubes moves the ovum from the ovary to the uterus.

That is true tge cactus as a structural adaptation to its envirinment has it leaves reduced to spines. but this doesnt mean it cant produce food it produces food because of the presence of chlorophyll in its stem
