Cytoskeleton
how Cytoskeletons are work(and explain what is cytoskeletons)
the Cytoskeletons functions as the cell's skeleton. it provides an internal protein framework that gives the cytoplasm strength and flexibility. the cytoskeletons of all cells includes microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microbules. muscle cells contain these cytoskeletals elements plus thick filaments. the organizational details remain poorly understood, because the network is extremely delicate and thus hard to study intact.
we will consider only a few of the many functions of the cytoskeleton in this section. in addition to the functions described here, the cytoskeleton plays a role in the metabolic organization of the cell by determining where in the cytoplasm key enzymatic reactions occur and where specific proteins are systhesized. for example. ,many intracellular enzymes-especially those involved with metabolism and energy production, and the ribosomes and RNA molecules responsible for the synthesis of proteins-are attached to the microfilaments and microtubules of the cytoskeleton. the varied metabolic functions of the cytoskeleton are now a subject of intensive research.

why Cytoskeleton are important?
The cytoskeleton is a cellular "scaffolding" or "skeleton" contained within the cytoplasm. The cytoskeleton is present in all cells. It is a dynamic structure that maintains cell shape, protects the cell, enables cellular motion (using structures such as flagella, cilia and lamellipodia), and plays important roles in both intracellular transport (the movement of vesicles and organelles, for example) and cellular division.
