Explanation

Microtubules are a type of cytoskeletal filament that play a crucial role in moving organelles, vesicles, and chromosomes within cells.

They are involved in various cellular processes, including:

• Intracellular transport (e.g., moving mitochondria, vesicles, and chromosomes)
• Cell division (e.g., separating chromosomes during mitosis)
• Cilia and flagella structure and movement
• Maintaining cell shape and mechanical integrity
