1) compare and contrast microtubules and intermediate filaments of fhe cytoskeleton in terms of structure, physical properties and functions. This means you should have one paragraph describing how they are similar and a second paragraph describing how they are different. 2) Compare and contrast channels and facilitated diffusion carriers in terms of what they transport, their structure, how they function and their general properties. This means you should have one paragraph describing how they are similar and a second paragraph describing how they are different.

Step 1
They are both made up of proteins, but the specific proteins differ between the two. Microtubules are composed of tubulin proteins, while intermediate filaments are made up of various types of proteins such as keratins, vimentin, and lamin. Both microtubules and Show more…
