functions of cytoplasm:

• The cytoplasm functions to support and suspend organelles and cellular molecules.

• Many cellular processes also occur in the cytoplasm, such as protein synthesis, the first stage of cellular respiration (known as glycolysis), mitosis, and meiosis.

• The cytoplasm helps to move materials, such as hormones, around the cell and also dissolves cellular waste.
