Question

which of the following statements with reference to cytoskeleton is not true?
a) helps in motility
b) helps to maintain shape of the cell
c) production of ATP
d) mechanical support​

Answer 1

Answer:

production of ATP

Answer 2

c) production of ATP is false with respect to cytoskeleton.

1. Cytoskeletons are the structure found in cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells.
2. Cytoskeleton comprises of three types of filaments namely actin filaments, intermediate filaments and microtubules.
3. The three functions performed by cytoskeleton are providing mechanical support along with maintainance of shape of cell. It also helps in motility.
4. Actin filaments are responsible for shape, microtubules are responsible for motility and intermediate filaments provide mechanical support.
