Microfilaments, also known as actin filaments, are similar to microtubules in that they are protein filaments that are part of the cytoskeleton in cells. They are involved in cell structure, support, and movement.
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.
Cellular framework found within the cytoplasm composed of microtubules and microfilaments is cytoskeleton. Cytoplasm is clear, gelatinous fluid in cells that is the site of numerous chemical reactions; in eukaryotic cells, it suspends the cell's organelles.
Intermediate filaments are generally considered the most stable among the three cytoskeletal elements (microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments). They are more resistant to changes in cell structure and provide structural support and stability to the cell.
Thin hollow cylinders made of protein that provide structural support for eukaryotic cells are microtubules. Microtubules are involved in nuceic and cell division, organization of intracellular structure, and intracellular transport, as well as ciliary and flagellar motility.
Microtubules and Microfilaments.
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.
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.

The actin that makes up cytoskeleton fibers are called microfilaments. They are the thinnest filaments of the cytoskeleton a structure found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells.Ê
Cytoskeleton filaments are protein fibers within cells that provide structure, support, and facilitate cell movement. They include microfilaments (actin filaments), microtubules, and intermediate filaments. These filaments help with cell division, cell shape maintenance, and cell signaling.
Thin hollow cylinders made of protein that provide structural support for eukaryotic cells are microtubules. Microtubules are involved in nuceic and cell division, organization of intracellular structure, and intracellular transport, as well as ciliary and flagellar motility.
The types of filaments found in eukaryotic cells are actin filaments (microfilaments), intermediate filaments, and microtubules. Actin filaments are involved in cell movement and structure, intermediate filaments provide mechanical support to the cell, and microtubules are important for cell division and intracellular transport.
