Microtubules, microfilaments and intermediate filaments:
1. are ribonucleoproteins.
2. are part of cytoskeleton in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
3. are involved in many functions such as mechanical support, motility, maintenance of the shape of the eukaryotic cell.
4. are always deposited on cell surface and are never found in the cytoplasm.
