Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cytoskeleton, which is responsible for maintaining cell shape and facilitating cell movement, would be affected by the absence of gravity, as it would no longer be necessary to resist gravity's downward force. This could potentially cause changes in cell shape and movement. The other options are less likely to be affected by changes in gravity.
