Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cytoskeleton is composed of protein filaments that give the cell its shape and support, and enable it to move and divide. The plasma membrane is the outermost structure of the cell that separates its contents from the extracellular environment. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, but is not directly involved in maintaining cell shape or movement. Lysosomes are organelles involved in intracellular degradation and waste disposal. The Golgi body is responsible for modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins for secretion or delivery to other organelles.
