- swimming: microtubules creates force to move associated cilia and flagella for swimming

- pumping cytoplasm is not a function of microtubules

- internal organization: microtubules growth and cutting, aggregation and separation happen to happen in the cytoplasm at various portion of cell cycle.

- GTP hydrolysis (shrinking and growth of microtubules are controlled by GTPase activity of tubulin)
