Q

Of the following steps of cell migration on ECM, which are dependent on integrin?

(i) Sensing
(ii) Extension
(iii) Attachment
(iv) Contraction
(v) Rear release
(vi) Recycline

A

iii, iv, and v
Attachment, contraction and rear release
These steps are most associated with the actual movement process.
