Answer:

Villi and microvilli are both membranous structures that help facilitate the exchange of materials out and in the cell.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are threadlike projections it increases the surface area while decreasing the volume (that's really good for any cell!). So they both indeed make the exchange of fluids and other materials easier.
