Detailed explanation-1: -Notwithstanding their conserved structures, actin filaments and microtubules form different cytoskeletal arrays with distinctive functions in plant and animal cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -cytoskeleton, a system of filaments or fibres that is present in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells (cells containing a nucleus).

Detailed explanation-3: -The mechanical function of cytoskeleton is particularly useful in animal cells, where no cell wall gives consistency to the cell. Without a cytoskeleton, animal cells will break because plasma membrane is just a sheet of fat.
