Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Microtubules are not made of myosin or actin, which are the proteins that make up microfilaments. They are not found only in the terminal web either, and microfilaments are actually another term for actin filaments. The correct answer is E, as microtubules interact with motor proteins called dynein and kinesin which are responsible for transport of organelles and vesicles within the cell.
