Answer: d. none of the other answers

Explanation:

Enzymes that turn chemical energy into mechanical work are molecular motors.

There are three main components of cytoskeleton including microtubules, actin filaments and Intermediate filaments. Only actin filaments and microtubules carry the motor-driven transport on the cytoskeleton.

The most important feature of intermediate filaments is to provide the plasma membrane with mechanical support where it comes into contact with the extracellular matrix and other cells.

Unlike microtubules and microfilament , intermediate filaments are not involved in motility of the cells, hence do not associat with molecular motors.

Hence, the correct option is d.

goblinko [34]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Settlement can be directly turned into <u>sedimentary rocks</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Sedimentary rocks are kinds of rocks that are framed by the collection or statement of little particles and ensuing cementation of mineral or natural particles on the sea floor or other places on the earth's crust. Sedimentation is the aggregate name for procedures that reason these particles to settle set up.

The particles that structure a sedimentary shake are called residue and might be made out of geographical or natural debris.
