The Cytoskeleton And Cell Motility - Cell and Molecular Biology

You use an ionic detergent to extract materials from a cell. When you do, much of the mRNA stays behind with the cytoskeleton, which is not solubilized/depolymerized by this treatment. What do these results mean?

A)The cytoskeleton denatures in ionic detergents.
B)The mRNA is solubilized by the ionic detergents.
C)The mRNA is anchored to the cytoskeleton.
D)The cytoplasm is anchored to the mRNA.
E)The cytoskeleton is destabilized by the ionic detergent.
