Which of the following is the function of the cytoskeleton?
-
Contains DNA
-
Surrounds the cell
-
Helps the cell keep its shape
-
Helps make protein
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments within the cell that provides structural support and helps maintain the cell's shape. It acts like a scaffold, giving the cell its shape and allowing it to maintain its structural integrity. The cytoskeleton also plays a role in cell movement, cell division, and the transport of materials within the cell. It is not involved in containing DNA, surrounding the cell, or directly involved in protein synthesis.
