B) neurofilaments
C) tau proteins
D) microtubules

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurofilaments are the type of cytoskeleton fiber that run parallel to the length of axons, providing structural support for the cell. Microfilaments and microtubules also contribute to the cytoskeleton and have various functions, but they do not specifically provide structural support along the length of axons. Tau proteins are not a type of cytoskeleton fiber, but rather a type of protein that stabilizes microtubules.
