Microfilaments are the thinnest filaments of the cytoskeleton found in the cytoplasm of all eukaryotic cells. These linear polymers of actin subunits are flexible and relatively strong, resisting buckling by multi-piconewton compressive forces and filament fracture by nanonewton tensile forces. Microfilaments are highly versatile, functioning in (a) actoclampin-driven expansile molecular motors, where each elongating filament harnesses the hydrolysis energy of its "on-board" ATP to drive actoclampin end-tracking motors to propel cell crawling, ameboid movement, and changes in cell shape, and (b) actomyosin-driven contractile molecular motors, where the thin filaments serve as tensile platforms for myosin's ATP hydrolysis-dependent pulling action in muscle contraction and uropod advancement.

What is a cell city analogy for a centrioles?
CYTOSKELETON is to POLICE DEPARTMENT because they both help protect the cell and maintain the structure in the cell/city. *The cytoskeleton helps support the cell and helps protect it. The police department help protect the city and maintain the structure/balance within it.
