  • A: Maintenance of cell shape in animal cells and muscle contraction
  • B: Chromosome movements in cell division and organelle movements
  • C: Anchorage of nucleus and formation of nuclear lamina
  • D: Formation of food vacuoles through plasma membrane manipulation

Explanation

Table 6.1 lists 'Maintenance of cell shape; changes in cell shape; muscle contraction; cytoplasmic streaming plant cells ; cell motility; cell division animal cells ' as main functions for Microfilaments. Option A covers two key functions listed directly in the table for microfilaments.
