A

Imntracellular transport

B

Maintenance of cell shape and structure

Verified by Experts

(None of the options is correct): Since all options are functions of cytoskeleton, none of the options is correct. Cytoskeletal structures occur only in eukaryotic cells. They are externally minute, fibrous and tubular structures which maintain cell shape and support the organelles. They also help in intracellular transport.
