Hollow cytoskeletal elements that act as organizers for the cytoskeleton?
Mitochondria
Name and describe the two types of structures that make up the cytoskeleton?
two types of structures that make up the cytoskeleton is microfilaments and intermediate filaments. microfilaments are thinnest elements of the cytoskeleton, and intermediate filaments are thicker than microfilament but thinner then microtubules.
What is cytoskeleton?
a shifting lattice arrangement of structural and contractile components distributed throughout the cell cytoplasm, composed of microtubules, microfilaments, and larger filaments, functioning as a structural support and transport mechanism. Or a skeleton contained within the cytoplasm
What is a network of protein fillaments that helps the cell maintain its shape?
the cytoskeleton
What part of the cell keeps the cell membrain from collapsing?
The cytoskeleton keeps the membrane from collapsing. A cytoskeleton is a skeleton and a muscle. The cytoskeleton function in a plant and animals.
Contractile elements of the cytoskelton?
Microfilaments
What contractile elements are in muscle cells?
sacromere
The organelle that is a bundle of contractile elements is called a?
Myofibris are cylindrical organelle. It is the organelle that is a bundle of contractile elements. Contractility is the ability to shorten forcibly when adequately stimulated.
Contratile elements of the cytoskeleton?
Actin filaments
Contractile elements of muscle cells are?
actin myosin
Which organelles contains the contractile elements found in skeletal muscle?
Myofibrils
What is non contractile muscle structures called?
series-elastic elements
What is the name of small contractile elements of skeletal muscle fiber?
sarcomere
Hollow cytoskeletal elements that act as organizers for the cytoskeleton?
Mitochondria
What are elements of the cytoskeleton are the smallest fibers that are used to move material around the cell?
Microfilaments
Made of microtubes and microfiliments to gie support to cells?
Microtubles are one of the components of the cytoskeleton. And i don't know the answer to microfilaments. but that is all i know, so there you go.
