SteveThe cytoskeleton is made up of microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. Microtubules are dynamic structures that provide shape, support, and aid in intracellular transport, and are made up of tubulin protein subunits. They are not considered organelles themselves, but they are vital components of the cytoskeleton.
The cytoskeleton is in itself an organelle, and it is made up of proteins. Only animal cells have cytoskeletons b/c plant cells have a cell wall instead.
All the organelles are part of the cytoskeleton and it is its own organelle. It keeps the shape of the cell.

Which organelle is Tina observing?
Cytoskeleton
What organelle works like the skeletal system?
The cytoskeleton
What organelle has short extensions of the cytoskeleton used for movement?
microtubules
Witch part of the cell is the organelle that functions as its brain?
The organelle that functions as the cell's control center or "brain" is the nucleus. It contains genetic material (DNA) that regulates cellular activities such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
What organelle gives the shape and support to the cell?
The cytoskeleton, not an organelle but a cellular structure, provides shape and support to the cell. It is responsible for maintaining cell structure, anchoring organelles in place, and facilitating cell movement.
Are microtubules an organelle?
No, microtubules are not considered organelles. They are dynamic protein structures that form part of the cytoskeleton in cells and play crucial roles in cell division, intracellular transport, and cell shape.
Which organelle is Tina observing?
Cytoskeleton
Which organelle is analogous to the skeletal system?
The cytoskeleton.
What organelle works like the skeletal system?
The cytoskeleton
Which part of the cell is the organelle that functions as it's brain?
the nucleus .
What organelle has short extensions of the cytoskeleton used for movement?
microtubules
What cell organelle organizes all of cell's life activities?
cytoskeleton
Which organelle provides elasticity to the cell?
Usually, cytoskeleton would be this "organelle"(cytoskeleton is more like just a protein network across the cell). Also, intercellular junctions and vacuoles(in plants) play a role.
What component of a cell functions like the digestive system in the human body?
The cytoskeleton.
What are functions of the cytoskeleton in plant cells?
The cytoskeleton in plant cells provides structural support, maintains cell shape, and enables cell movement. It is also involved in cell division, intracellular transport, and organelle positioning. Additionally, the cytoskeleton helps in communication between cells and responds to environmental stimuli.
What are two functions of a cytoskeleton in a animal?
The functions of the cytoskeleton used in an animal cell, is for the movement of the animal and so that objects within the cell can move.
What part of speech is cytoskeleton?
Cytoskeleton is a noun.
