Indicate whether each statement is true or False.
1. The cytoplasm contains all of the material inside of the plasma membrane.
2. The cytosol is the fluid portion of the cytoplasm, which contains the cytoskeleton and cytoplasmic inclusions.
3. The cytoskeleton supports the cell and holds the nucleus and other organelles in place.
4. The cytoskeleton consists of 3 groups of Carbohydrates: microtubules, actin filaments, and intermediate filaments.
5. Cytoplasmic inclusions of the cytoplasm can be aggregates of chemicals either produced or taken in by the cell.
