Answer:

colchicine inhibits microtubule function, it is most likely that the

vesicular movement is orchestrated or produce by microtubules.

Step-by-step explanation:

Microtubules is organelle in the cell which give shape to the cell and help transport vessicles, granules and some organelles inside the cell.

Colchicine is a chemical substance that inhibit microtubules function and for gout treatment.

When colchicine is added to the microtubules, vessicles movement is produce by microtubules.
