Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Microtubules and microfilaments are dynamic structures that can rapidly assemble and disassemble in response to cellular signals and events. They are involved in processes such as cell movement, division, and polarization. In contrast, intermediate filaments are more stable and provide structural support to the cell.
