Best Answer

In a eukaryotic cell there is a semi fluid called cytosol.




A typical cell is composed of cell membrane enclosing the cytoplasm, the main fluid which takes most part of the cell. The cell organelles carry out their functions in this base of cytoplasm. The cytoplasm consists,cytosol,organelles and cytoplasmic inclusions.

Cytosol-Found outside membrane bound organelles. It is a translucent fluid in which other elements are suspended. Cytosol makes up about 70% of the cell volume and is composed of water,salts,dissolved molecules,cytoskeleton filaments and organic molecules ( remember,cytosol is a part of cytoplasm and not different from it).


Organelles- these are not fluids.


Inclusions- these are not fluids.
