A)Cancerous, because the cytoskeleton has shrunk and has become disorganized due to DNA or tumor suppressor genes (proteins) being damaged through some way or another (radiation, for example). DNA and other genes control the structure and behavior of the cytoskeleton, and when they are damaged, the cancerous cell is free to mutate.
The cytoskeleton doesn't shrink or become disorganized during mitosis.
Phagocytosis doesn't shrink the cytoskeleton, or make it disorganized.
In dosage compensation, proteins are deactivated, not lost.
