Expert Solution

Step 1

Microfilaments are composed mainly of actin protein filaments and are essential to the eukaryotic cytoskeleton.
They are Ultramicroscopic, long, thin, cylindrical rods of about 7 nm diameter protein filaments.
Actin has a contractile association with the myosin protein and helps in muscular contraction and cell motility.
