Cytoskeleton
The cytoskeleton consists of fibrous structures providing support, movement and intracellular transport. Components include microfilaments (4-6 nm), intermediate filaments (8-10 nm) and microtubules (20-25 nm). Microfilaments and microtubules are similar in all cells, while intermediate filaments are heterogeneous and cell-type specific. 800x, 1000x
