Using the chromatophore (pigmented) cells of zebra fish as an experimental system, you and a colleague are collaborating on developing novel anti-cancer compounds. You are the cell biologist, specializing in the cytoskeleton, and she is a synthetic organic chemist. She develops a new compound in her research lab and you test it on the pigment movement assay we watched in class. You find something remarkable! When cells are treated with the new chemical, the pigmented vesicles in the middle of the cel.never leave the middle. In the untreated cells, they race throughout the cell to darken the fish. Of the choices below, which is/are the most likely possible interpretations of this result? This question may have multiple answers.
