Which organ systems are involved in the support and movement of your body?
Skeletal (support) Muscular (motion)
What structures are not directly involved in cell support or movement?
Lysosome
Parts of cytoskeleton?
The cytoskeleton is in itself an organelle, and it is made up of proteins. Only animal cells have cytoskeletons b/c plant cells have a cell wall instead.
What organ system provides a framework of support for the body?
The skeletal system provides the framework to support the body.
What provides the cell with structural support?
The cell wall is what provides the cell with structural support.
Framework of filaments and fibers involved in cell support and movement?
The cytoskeleton of a cell is made up of several fibers. These fibers help the cell move and give the cell structure, shape, and support.
What do intermediate filaments do?
Intermediate filaments support the cells shape, so it can perform special functions. Various types of intermediate filaments can function together as the permanent framework of the cell.
What is the function of actin filaments?
providing structure support and involved in movement.
What is the function of filaments?
providing structure support and involved in movement.
What is responsible for support structor and movement in cells?
cytoskeleton
What are threadlike structures that provide support and shape for cells?
The threadlike structures that provide support and shape for cells are called cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton consists of protein filaments, such as microtubules, actin filaments, and intermediate filaments, which give the cells their structural integrity and help in cell movement and division.
What system provides for movement and support?
the skeletal system supports our body structure and provides a framework the muscles use to cause movement.
Which organ systems are involved in the support and movement of your body?
Skeletal (support) Muscular (motion)
What structures are not directly involved in cell support or movement?
Lysosome
What do actin filaments support?
the cytoskeleton
Parts of cytoskeleton?
The cytoskeleton is in itself an organelle, and it is made up of proteins. Only animal cells have cytoskeletons b/c plant cells have a cell wall instead.
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.
