Which cell structure or organelle is responsible for regulating movement into and out of a cell?
The nuclear membrane or the nuclear envelope.
Which mechanism involves the drawing of actin microfilaments between myosin microfilaments?
The ratchet mechanism
What is the role of the protein actin?
Actin is found in muscle tissue ( along with myosin) and makes up microfilaments which are responsible for cellular movement and also function in cell division.
Where are the microfilaments found?
In the cytoskeleton.
What is the function of a Microfilaments in a plant cell?
in cells, microfilaments support cytoplasm and microtubules transport materials within cytoplasm
Do plant and animal cells have microfilaments?
Yes, plants have microtubules. Microtubules are hollow tubes composed of a protein called tubulin. They are the thickest and most rigid of the filaments.
What structures carry out cell movement?
a. cytoplasm and ribosomes b. nucleolus and nucleus c. microtubules and microfilaments d. chromosomes answer is c. microtubules and microfilaments
Contractile elements of the cytoskelton?
Microfilaments
