Intracellular vesicles can move across a cell quickly, indicating that the mechanism of vesicle movement is most likely not a function of passive diffusion through the cytoplasm. Which of the following best describes the mechanism through which vesicles move throughout a cell?

Question

anonymous · Answer

Vesicles slide along the microtubules of the cytoskeleton.

Vesicles are propelled through the cytoplasm by a small structure similiar to flagella

vesicles have an osmotic pump that forces small amounts of cytoskeleton out in one direction as it contracts, pushing the vesicle forward in the opposite direction

vesicles are moved throughout the cytoplasm  by ATP-driven transport prions.
