The cytoskeleton is used for cell shape, internal structure, movement, and cell division. Many cells are surrounded by and supported by a complex extracellular matrix and are able to interact with adjacent cells and the environment via cell junctions. 3. List three common components of microtubules and microfilaments. 6. Complete the paragraph to describe how organelles help cells and cell contents move around. _j help to move cell components, such as a cell's during cell division. They rapidly assemble strengthen duplicated hen needed and then disassemble. and change the shape of a eukaryotic cell. In this way they can help the cell move. Organized arrays of are found in and of eukaryotic cells. Elongated or false feet, help in amoebas' these single-celled organisms move. - Describe four examples of extracellular matrix in different organisms.arrow_forwardConcerning the plasma membrane: A Approximately 80% of the plasma mem- brane mass is composed of phospholipids; B Most of the membrane proteins are extrin- sic proteins and GPI-anchored proteins; C Membrane proteins are never glycopro- teins; |D The composition of the plasma membrane is different from that of endomembranes; E Transmembrane proteins can be transport proteins (ion pumps; canals, transporters, ..).arrow_forward
