The document discusses the three main types of cytoskeletal filaments in cells - microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments. It describes their composition, structure, organization within cells, and important functions. Microfilaments are composed of actin proteins and are involved in cell movement, anchoring membrane proteins, and cell division. Microtubules are hollow tubes composed of alpha and beta tubulin subunits and help with intracellular transport and chromosome segregation. Intermediate filaments provide structural support and are made of keratin in epithelial cells. The cytoskeleton overall maintains cell shape, internal organization, transport within cells, tissue assembly, and cell movement.
