CYTOSKELETON: Maintains cell shape and assists movement of cell parts. It is a dynamic structure that protect the cell body, enables cellular motion (with the use of flagella,celia, and lamellipodia) and plays important roles in intracellular transport ( the movemoent of vesicles and organelles) cellular division.

Microtubules: cylinders of proteins molecules present in cytosplasm,centrioles, cilia,and flagella.



Intermediate filaments: Protein fibers that provide support and strength

Actin filaments: Protein fibers that play a role in movement of cell and organelles. They are very thin fibers that occur in bundles or other groupings also they are involved in movement; microvilli, which project from certain cell, shorten and extend.


Centrioles: Short cylinders of microtubules of unknown function


Centrosome: Microtubule organizing center that contains a pair of centrioles.
