The cytoskeleton is the scaffolding of a cell. It is composed of microtubules, actin filaments, spectrin tetramers, and intermediate filaments. Without this framework, the cell would collapse.

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.
What is a cell's internal supporting framework?
The cytoskeleton is the structural framework in a cell ("cyto" refers to cell and "skeleton" refers to a structural framework).
How is a cytoskeleton like your muscles?
A cytoskeleton is like our muscles in a way that like the intermediate filaments in a cytoskeleton they give us our strength.
What does a cell use to anchor guide or group organelles?
The cytoskeleton.
What is an accurate description of the cytoskeleton of a cell?
The cell cytoskeleton is a dynamic network of fibers that can be quickly dismantled and reassembled to change cell shape and the position of cell components
Description of microfilament?
Part of cytoskeleton is what i would say. Helps cells move also.

What cell parts does the cytoskeleton interact with?
what parts does a cytoskeleton have?
What has a cytoskeleton?
Cytoskeleton is in eukariyotes.It is spreaded through out cytoplasm.
What part of the cytoskeleton is responsible for cell movement?
Cytoskeleton.
In a eukaryotic cell a network of protein filaments called what help maintain the shape of cell?
A network of protein filaments is called a cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton helps cells to maintain their shape as well as support and movement.
What is a cell's internal supporting framework?
The cytoskeleton is the structural framework in a cell ("cyto" refers to cell and "skeleton" refers to a structural framework).
