Microtubules are one of the cytoskeletal filament systems in eukaryotic cells. The microtubule cytoskeleton is involved in the transport of material within cells, carried out by motor proteins that move on the surface of the microtubule.
Hope this helps you!
Microtubules are mostly found in all eukaryotic cells
Microtubules are tiny, tender hollow structures that majorly found in eukaryotic cells, are primarily help cells maintain their shape. Microtubules help shape the cytoskeleton of the cell and also contribute in variety of motor functions for the cell.
Functions of Microtubules
The functions of Microtubules are listed below but not limited to the following:
Explaining Eukaryotic cells
These are cells that contain organized organelles and nucleus which are surrounded by organelles that are connected to the membrane.
Explaining Cytoskeleton
Cytoskeleton can be defined as a structure that aids cells in maintaining their shape and inner components while providing support that allows cells to carry out major functions like movement and division.
It is worthy to note that there is no single cytoskeleton component but various components collectively form the cytoskeleton.
The examples of eukaryotic cells are animals, plants, fungi etc. and their inherent particle is formed in chromosomes.
