CELL STRUCTURE

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A framework of protein filaments for the cell within the cytoplasm that gives the cell its shape and helps the cell to move.
A
Cilia
B
Cytoskeleton
C
Lysosome
D
Ribosome
E
Vacuole
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cytoskeleton is the network of cytoplasmic protein filaments, composed of microtubules (MTs), actin filaments, and intermediate filaments, that provides an internal scaffold to give the cell shape.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cytoskeleton provides a structural framework for the cell, serving as a scaffold that determines cell shape and the general organization of the cytoplasm. In addition to playing this structural role, the cytoskeleton is responsible for cell movements.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cytoskeleton of a cell is made up of microtubules, actin filaments, and intermediate filaments. These structures give the cell its shape and help organize the cell’s parts. In addition, they provide a basis for movement and cell division.

Detailed explanation-4: -Actin filaments can assemble and disassemble quickly, and this property allows them to play an important role in cell motility (movement), such as the crawling of a white blood cell in your immune system. Finally, actin filaments play key structural roles in the cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -The cytoskeleton is the protein framework within the cytoplasm that links, anchors, or tethers structural components inside the cell. Microfilaments (actin filaments), microtubules, and intermediate filaments are three classes of cytoskeleton proteins found in the cytoplasm.
