Solution

The correct option is E All of the above
Since all options are functions of the cytoskeleton, none of the options is correct.
Cytoskeletal structures occur only in eukaryotic cells. They are externally small, fibrous and tubular structures that maintain cell shape and support the organelles. They also help in intracellular transport.
