Cytoplasmic streaming, driven by actin, is described as which kind of movement?

ABack and forth flow in animal cells
BOutward flow through plant vacuoles
CInward flow across the cell wall
DCircular flow of plant cytoplasm
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Circular flow of plant cytoplasm
1. Actin engages in cellular events that require motion. 2. Two are named, cell division in animal cells and cytoplasmic streaming. 3. Cytoplasmic streaming is the circular movement of the cell cytoplasm in plant cells. 4. It is a plant phenomenon, so the answer placing it in animal cells is wrong. 5. It is circular flow of plant cytoplasm. _Source: OpenStax Biology (1st ed., CC BY 4.0), Ch 4 "Cell Structure", section 4.5 The Cytoskeleton_
