What are the functions of the cytoskeleton?

Answer:
It provides shape and gives [mechanically] structural support. It also serves as a monorail to transport substances around the Cell;

Structural: It provides structural support to Cells and stabilizes the Desmosomes [Cell-Gap junctions];

Movement: It assists with cytosol streaming and internal Cell motility; It helps move organelles and materials throughout the Cell; and It helps with the movement of chromosomes during cell division;

The Cytoskeleton supports the Cell by maintaing It's structure. It is also responsible for providing the "structural Ladder" that the Enzyme Working Motors use for motility [this motility is used for Substance transport], and functions in the same way for Chromosomal Segregation;

The cytoskeleton provides shape and helps the cell move it's constituents around;

The cytoskeleton of Cells are made from fibers;

The cytoskeleton acts as a frame that gives a Cell its shape, protects it to an extent, and helps with internal cellular motion by using webs of proteins; and,

It gives the cell shape and coherence.
The two functions of the cytoskeleton is it helps the cell maintain its shape and it helps the cell move
The cytoskeleton is a web of proteins inside the cell. It acts as both a skeleton and a muscle. The cytoskeleton helps the cell keep its shape. It also helps some cells, such as bacteria, to move.
