The Cytoskeleton is a system of microtubules, in a cell.

The kinetochore microtubules
Cilia and flagella are made up of microtubules, specifically arranged in a 9+2 pattern. They consist of nine doublets of microtubules surrounding a central pair of microtubules. The movement of cilia and flagella is generated by the sliding of these microtubules past each other.
Yes, spindle fibers and microtubules are essentially the same in that spindle fibers are composed of microtubules. Microtubules are a component of the cytoskeleton, made of tubulin protein subunits, and they play various roles in cellular structure and transport. During cell division, specifically in mitosis and meiosis, microtubules organize into spindle fibers that help separate chromosomes. Thus, while all spindle fibers are microtubules, not all microtubules function as spindle fibers.

No, but it won't function without one.

Flagella possess a central bundle of microtubules in which nine outer double microtubules surround a central pair of single microtubules. This characteristic "9 + 2" arrangement of microtubules is also seen in cilia.
Microtubules are polymers of tubulin. Microfilaments are polymers of actin.
Spindle fibers are composed of microtubules, which are polymers of the protein tubulin. These microtubules play a crucial role in cell division by helping to separate the chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis.
The mitotic spindle is composed of microtubules, which are dynamic structures made up of tubulin protein subunits. It consists of three main types of microtubules: kinetochore microtubules that attach to the chromosomes, polar microtubules that interact with each other to help push the poles of the cell apart, and astral microtubules that anchor the spindle poles to the cell membrane.
Cilia and flagella contain microtubules, which are a type of cytoskeleton fiber made up of tubulin protein subunits. Microtubules provide structural support and are involved in the movement of cilia and flagella.
