Question

which statement about the cytoskeleton is false? the cytoskeleton helps to support cells. once laid down, the elements of the cytoskeleton are fixed and remain permanently in place. the cytoskeleton plays an important role in amoeboid motion. the cytoskeleton is composed of three types of fibers: microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments.

Explanation:

The cytoskeleton is a dynamic structure. Its elements can be assembled and disassembled as needed for various cellular processes like cell - division, movement, and shape - change. It is not fixed permanently in place. It provides support to cells, is involved in amoeboid motion, and is composed of microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments.

Answer:

Once laid down, the elements of the cytoskeleton are fixed and remain permanently in place
