The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Tubulin Protein**: Tubulin is a protein that is a key component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells. It is primarily known for its role in forming microtubules. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The question provides four options: - A) Enzyme - B) Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum - C) Microtubules and Cilia - D) Microfilaments and Micro 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Option A (Enzyme)**: Tubulin is not an enzyme; it does not catalyze biochemical reactions. - **Option B (Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum)**: While the rough endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein synthesis, it does not contain tubulin. - **Option C (Microtubules and Cilia)**: Microtubules are composed of tubulin proteins, and cilia are structures that contain microtubules. - **Option D (Microfilaments and Micro)**: Microfilaments are made of actin, not tubulin. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **Option C: Microtubules and Cilia**. Tubulin proteins are essential components of microtubules, which are part of the cytoskeleton and are also found in cilia. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, tubulin protein occurs in **Microtubules and Cilia**. ---
