Solution

The correct option is A amoeboid movement
Microfilaments are usually made up of two strands of actin and are almost 7nm in size. They are involved in functions like cytokinesis, amoeboid movement, changes in cell shape, endocytosis and exocytosis, cell contractility, and mechanical stability.

So, the correct answer is 'amoeboid movement'.
