Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: The hair and nails contain a protein known as keratin. These proteins are also responsible for the formation of the intermediate filaments. These filaments are assembled to produce a dimeric and tetrameric structure.
Detailed explanation-2: -The simplest soluble unit of intermediate filament proteins is a tetramer consisting of two antiparallel dimers; each dimer, in the case of keratins, consists of one type I keratin molecule and one type II keratin molecule.
Detailed explanation-3: -One protein that forms intermediate filaments is keratin, a fibrous protein found in hair, nails, and skin.
