Expert please, great Qn.
Function:
microfilaments - cell movement
microtubules - involved in cell division
Definition:
Microtubules - hollow rod constructed of many molecules of the protein tubulin. Part of the cytoskeletion.
microfilament - rod of actin protein in the cytoplasm that provides structural support or movement. Part of the cytoskeleton.
What else can I help you with?
What are 3 protein fibers found in cytoskeleton?
The three protein fibers found in the cytoskeleton are actin filaments (microfilaments), intermediate filaments, and microtubules. They play key roles in providing structure and support to the cell, facilitating cell movement, and aiding in cell division and intracellular transport.
What two parts make up the cytoskleton?
The cytoskeleton is composed of microfilaments (actin filaments) and microtubules. These components provide structure and support to cells, as well as playing a role in cell movement and intracellular transport.
Name and describe the two types of structures that make up the cytoskeleton?
two types of structures that make up the cytoskeleton is microfilaments and intermediate filaments. microfilaments are thinnest elements of the cytoskeleton, and intermediate filaments are thicker than microfilament but thinner then microtubules.
What belongs to the cytoskeleton?
The cytoskeleton is composed of microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments. These structures provide support and shape to the cell, aid in cell movement and division, and help transport materials within the cell.
In which part of a cell is the microtubules located?
Microtubules are located in three locations in the cell. They are: 1. Cytoplasmic microtubles which, as the name suggests is located in the cytoplasm. 2. Axonemal microtubules that are located in cilia and flagella 3. Basal bodies, which are structures located at the base of a cilium and contains microtubules. Generally, microtubules originate from cytoplasmic organelles called centrioles. The region from which microtubules originate is called the microtubule organizing center.
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
How do microfilaments and microtubules differ from each other?
Microfilaments are thinner rods of protein that enable movement. Microtubules are hollow tubes that give rigidity and shape. Flagella and cilia have microtubules in their centers.
What material are microtubules composed of?
Microtubules are polymers of tubulin. Microfilaments are polymers of actin.
Microtubules and microfilaments form the cytoskeleton of cells?
that is true
What are 3 protein fibers found in cytoskeleton?
The three protein fibers found in the cytoskeleton are actin filaments (microfilaments), intermediate filaments, and microtubules. They play key roles in providing structure and support to the cell, facilitating cell movement, and aiding in cell division and intracellular transport.
What protein fiber is used for cellular movement and are extremely thin in size?
Microfilaments and Microtubules are involved.
Which structure carry out cell movement?
Microtubules and Microfilaments.
What all are parts of the cytoskeleton?
Microfilaments, Intermediate filaments, Microtubules
Microtubules and microfilaments are made from proteins that are shaped like .?
balls
What is the function of a Microfilaments in a plant cell?
in cells, microfilaments support cytoplasm and microtubules transport materials within cytoplasm
Microtubles and microfilaments are made from proteins that are shaped like?
Microtubules 50nm, make up the larger part of the cytoskeleton, and they are hollow, and larger. Microfilaments 8-10 nm are smaller, they are in a double helix shape, different from microtubules.
How are microfilamentsmicrotubulesand cytoskeleton related?
Microfilaments and microtubules make up the cytoskeleton in eukaryotes.
