The only cytoskeletal fibers not associated with intracellular movement or whole cell locomotion are the intermediate filaments.

Explanation:

The cytoskeletal fibers that are involved in intracellular movement or whole cell locomotion are the actin filaments as well as the microtubules filaments. Dislike them, The intermediate filaments majorly function in imparting mechanical strength to the cells. They are strong and have a rope shaped structure. The intermediate filaments are made of protein sub - units which vary for each type of cell. Intermediate filaments are also known to work in association with microtubule filaments to strengthen the tubulin.
