Solution

The correct option is D Microtubules
During cell division chromosome move towards different poles due to microtubules. Microtubules are found at kinetochores and used to pull chromatids apart during mitosis. In polarized interphase cells, microtubules are disproportionately oriented from the MTOC toward the site of polarity, such as the leading edge of migrating fibroblasts.
So, the correct answer is option C.
