The right answer is balls (globules).

Microtubules are constituent fibers of the cytoskeleton, as are actin microfilaments and intermediate filaments.

The microtubules are formed of tubulin dimers (which have a spherical shape) each consisting of two subunits, tubulin α and tubulin β, linked by non-covalent bonds.

Actin, the main component of microfilaments, is a bi-globular protein that plays an important role in architecture and cell movement. It is present in all the cells of the body (ubiquitous protein), and especially in the muscular cells.

The energy animals need for their life functions is released when their cells carry out which of the following functions
Vlad [161]

Cellular respiration

Explanation:

The energy animals need for their life functions are released when their cells carry out cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration is a metabolic process by which living organisms breaks down organic molecules using oxygen  especially glucose to produce energy and gives off carbon dioxide and water in the process.

It is the reverse of photosynthesis.

During this process, chemical energy stored in food substances are released and converted to heat energy.

The process takes place in the mitochondria of a cell.
