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.

Muscle contractions are the movements of the muscles that happen with any activity carried out by the help of muscles. These movement include shortening, tightening or lengthening. Any slight task like bending, or picking up an object can cause the movements of muscles.

Electrical burn is the damage of skin tissues caused by an electric shock. These can be of three types: electrical burns, arc burns, and thermal contact burns. In appearance the burn looks white and charred. Generally the nerves are destroyed by the burn and hence sensations of pain are lost.
