Verified step by step guidance

Understand the role of organelles within a cell. Organelles are specialized structures that perform various functions necessary for cell survival and operation.

Recognize that cells are dynamic environments. Organelles often need to move to different locations within the cell to perform their functions effectively.

Consider the mechanisms that facilitate organelle movement. For example, motor proteins such as kinesin and dynein transport organelles along the cytoskeleton, which acts like a cellular highway.

Reflect on examples of organelle movement. Mitochondria, for instance, move to areas of the cell where energy demand is high, while vesicles transport materials between organelles and to the cell membrane.

Conclude that the statement 'Organelles must remain stationary within the cell' is false, as organelle movement is essential for cellular function and adaptation to changing conditions.
