What is the advantage of the cell having organelles rather than having all the molecules floating in the cytosol?

The main advantage of a cell having organelles is the devision of labor. If the cytosol had to do all the work it would take longer than if each little organelle did it. An example, would you prefer building a house yourself or having a crew to do it? Same thing.
You also asked about the cytosol. Everything would be floating around because the cytosol can't keep everything in place, so you would have floating oxygen, glucose, h2o and other things. It would be easier if each of those things had a place to be put. So the proteins in the Golgi body and so forth. An example, would you prefer picking trash floating in a pool or trash on land?

Is it accurate to say that organelles are floating freely in the cytosol?
no because they can't be free
What is cytosol and does it contain?
Cytosol is the fluid portion of the cytoplasm surrounding the organelles. Cytosol does not actually contain organelles.
What consists of the cytosol and the organelles?
cytoplasm
What do cell organelles float around inside a cell?
This is called the cytoplasm which fills the cell.
What is the cytosol made of?
Cytosol is made out of salts, minerals, and organic molecules.

The soluble portion of cytoplasm including molecules and small particles such as ribosomes but not organelles covered with membranes?
cytosol
What are the three major components in cytoplasm?
the cytosol, the organelles, and inclusions
What are organelles suspended in?
They are suspended in the cytosol which is the liquid portion of the cytoplasm.
Why are organelles surrounded by membranes?
Organelles are surrounded by membranes to separate themselves from the cytosol.
Suspended in the cell's cytosol are tiny?
organelles :)
What are organelles immersed in?
The Cytosol
What does cytoplasm have that cytosol does not?
Organelles
What consists of the cytosol and the organelles?
cytoplasm
What does cytosol?
The cytosol is like the water in a sea. It holds the organelles and other parts of the cell.
What organelle is between all organelles?
cytosol
