The function of the cytoskeleton in a cell is:
Correct answer: D. Mechanical support, cell motility and structure maintenance
- A. Control of the cell exchange with the outer environment
- B. Meiosis and mitosis
- C. Production of protein
- D. Mechanical support, cell motility and structure maintenance
Explanation
The cytoskeleton is involved in modulating the shape and structure of the cell, providing mechanical support and integrity, and enabling the movement of the cell.

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
