Compare and Contrast all three cytoskeletal elements (microtubules, microfilaments, intermediate filaments).
Compare and Contrast all three cytoskeletal elements (microtubules, microfilaments, intermediate filaments).
Intermediate filaments are an essential class of cytoskeletal proteins. Give three examples of how they different from the other cytoskeletal systems, i.e., microtubules and microfilaments. (The best answer will include some details about the other cytoskeletal elements, e.g., composition, proteins that bind actin/tubulin, etc.)
Which of the following associate with kinesin and dynein? O Microtubules O Microfilaments Intermediate filaments All of the above Two of the above None of the above All movement of organelles along cytoskeletal proteins uses ATP as the energy source. True False
How does myoblast and myotube differs in cytoskeletal components of their microfilaments (actin), microtubules (tubulin), and Intermediate filaments (Vimentin).
compare and contrast the three different filaments found in the cytoskeleton system. please go into more detail than the space allotted. 4) Compare and Contrast the three different filaments found in the cytoskeleton system. Intermediate Filaments Actin (microfilaments) Microtubules a. UNIQUE Function (s) of filament b. Dynamic or Static c. Interacts with which motor proteins?
Intermediate filaments differ from microtubules and microfilaments in size and also in that they are A. found only in prokaryotes B. found only in plant cells C. tissue specific D. found only in the nucleus E. extracellular
of the three types of fibers; microfilaments (or and intermediate filaments are fibers with diameters in a Microtubules are the filaments) are the middle range. Microtubules are hollow rods about 25 nm in diameter and 200 nm to 25 um in length. Microtubule fibers are constructed of the globular protein A tubulin dimer consists of two slightly different polypeptides: a-tubulin and B-tubulin. Microtubules shape and support the cell and serve as tracks to guide motor proteins carrving organelles to their...
What component of the cytoskeleton is associated with tight junctions? intermediate filaments O microfilaments microtubules Question 3 2 pts Epiethelial cells have which of the following on their basal surfaces? O adherens junctions hemidesmosomes O tight junctions O gap junctions desmosomes
Compare and contrast the microtubule and microfilament by matching the following statements to the appropriate cytoskeletal component. - A. B. C. D. Have polymers that are polar. - A. B. C. D. Have subunits that are non-polar. - A. B. C. D. Uses dynein motors for retrograde...
The cytoskeletal structure(s) that are composed of actin and regulate cell shape, cell movement and muscle contraction include O microtubules Omicrofilaments O intermediate filaments microtubules and intermediate filaments e microtubules and microfilaments
A simple yes or no for the first part and what would happen if the cytoskeleton element was to fail if present Questions 3. Which of the three types of cytoskeletal elements (microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments) are present in a sperm cell? What would be the impact of a loss of function in each of the types of cytoskeletal structures? Present in sperm cells? (Yes/No) Loss of function Microtubules Microfilaments Intermediate Filaments
