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.

Which of the following is not a type of adaptation?
enyata [817]

Answer: The correct answer for the first question is- B) Mechanical.

Adaptation can be described as a process of change in an organism over time that facilitates its survival in the changing environmental conditions. It results due to mutation or genetic change in the individual that gives a benefit to the organism. It exhibits change in structure ( like succulent plants in desert), function, or behavior.

Mechanical is not a type of adaptation as it deals with movement of objects.

The correct answer for second question is- C) Variations.

Variation among organisms in a population results from change in the genetic material or their genetic sequences. Change at the genetic level is thus reflected in the phenotypes ( like different color of feathers in birds).

Thus, difference is in the feather color reflects variations.
