Options
A Microfilaments
B Intermediate filaments
C Vesicles
Correct Answer
D Microtubules
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments that provides structural support, enables movement, and organizes cellular components. Its three main types are microfilaments (actin), intermediate filaments, and microtubules. Vesicles are membrane-bound sacs for transport, not structural filaments.

Hint

Vesicles are organelles, not structural filaments.
