Cytoplasm functions as a "molecular soup" that holds together all of the cell's organelles, and divides the organelles within the cell. Cytoplasm is thought to be the "home"of the cytoskeleton; the cytoskeleton provides movement of the cell as well as its shape through the "cytoplasmic streaming", when the cytoskeleton moves to push the cell membrane it is then when the cytoplasm moves and fills the empty space. Proteins that occur in the cytoskeleton help to keep the shape of the cell, for the proteins are known to be used for "intracellular support". Also,cytoplasm contains nutrients that have been dissolved and it help for the dissolving of the waste products. Within the cytoplasm there are also "microtubules" which function as cell dividers, they are known for "temporary scaffolding"-for the other organelles.Actin Filaments are also rfound in cytoplasm and they also contribute to cell division as well as cell motility. Furthermore, the cytoplasm is composed of components that benefit the cell and keep the organelles separate from one another.

hows that?
