Answer: retain its shape; divide

Explanation: In a wide range of cell type, networks of actin filaments aid in supporting and strengthening the plasma membrane this allowing the cells to hold — and move — specialized shapes. They also play active roles in cytokinesis and cell movement.

Cytochalasin targets actin filaments in the cytoskeleton, preventing them from forming thus inhibiting a wide variety of cellular movements (cytokinesis, cell locomotion, cytoplasmic streaming, blood clot retraction etc.). As a consequence,

cytochalasins can disrupt cellular morphology, cell division, and even cause cell death.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

here is answer

Explanation:

Thus, gases (such as O2 and CO2), hydrophobic molecules (such as benzene), and small polar but uncharged molecules (such as H2O and ethanol) are able to diffuse across the plasma membrane. Other biological molecules, however, are unable to dissolve in the hydrophobic interior of the phospholipid bilayer.
