Which of the following functions is carried out by cytoskeleton in a cell?
- Transportation
- Nuclear division
- Protein synthesis
- Motility
The correct answer is 4) Motility. The cytoskeleton is responsible for providing structural support, maintaining cell shape, and enabling cell movement and motility. It achieves this through various components such as microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments, which work together to allow cells to change shape, move, and interact with their environment. This function is essential for processes like cell migration, muscle contraction, and the movement of structures like cilia and flagella.
