Which of the following are found only in animal cells?
A
Intermediate filaments
B
Microtubules
C
Nucleus
D
Microfilaments
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Centrioles-Centrioles are self-replicating organelles made up of nine bundles of microtubules and are found only in animal cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Intermediate filaments (IFs) constitute a major structural element of animal cells. They build two distinct systems, one in the nucleus and one in the cytoplasm. In both cases, their major function is assumed to be that of a mechanical stress absorber and an integrating device for the entire cytoskeleton.

Detailed explanation-3: -Final Answer: Centrioles are found only in animal cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Intermediate filaments are a primary component of the cytoskeleton, although they are not found in all eukaryotes, and are absent in fungi and plants [1].

Detailed explanation-5: -Intermediate Filament Proteins. The type III intermediate filament proteins include vimentin, which is found in a variety of different kinds of cells, including fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells, and white blood cells.
