tell me if i got this rgiht

Microfibiril forms Mysoin and Actin....Actin forms Microfilament

microfilament along with intermediate filament maintain cell shape and are part of cytoskeleton

microfibirl is the building block of cellulose therefore many plant cell walls contain a Shi* load of microfibirils....as well as oomycota (fungi) whose cell was is made of cellulose instead of chitin
 
U got it... + oomycota cell wall is also made of beta glucans (along with cellulose)
 
MICROfibril : cellulose network
MYOfibril: actin myosin
then MYOfilaments: each filaments in MYOfibril such as ACTIN and MYOSIN
CHITIN is for FUNGI (cellulose with Nitrogen)
MICROfilaments: cytoskeleton (ACTIN)
INTERMEDIATE filament KERATIN
MICROtubules: cilia, flagella, and spindle fiber and centrioles


i actually missed this in achiever bio, and had to learn it 🙂

and oomycota is water mold

i believe oomycota is a type of protist (fungi-like) 🙂
 
intermediate filaments are made from keratin...just thought id throw that in there
 
like if the questino asked what is actin made from
A.microfibiril
B.myofibirl
C. A/B
D. nonoe
it would C

but it asked what is mysoin made out of
it would just B

can u also elaborate a lil bit more on myofilaments and myofibiril it kinda seems like the same?
