What car part compares to cytoplasm?

Hey there my funky user! This question is pretty cool and I am quite excited by it so here goes nothing 😄 Firstly, the cytoplasm is basically the jelly-like matrix in the cell which is mostly composed of water called the cytosol and it includes all the organelles, except the nucleus. In conclusion, cytosol + organelles (no nucleus) = cytoplasm. I am no car mechanic but I most likely feel that the cytoplasm compares well with the car's chassis, a.k.a., the body of the car. This is because it holds all the parts like the engine, radiator, wires, steering wheel, doors, storage boot, fuel tank and other things I most likely don't know. Hope this answer was satisfactory! 😄👍


What does a cytoplasm do in the human body?

Cytoplasm is a gel-like substance that fills the inside of cells and holds the cell's organelles in place. It plays a crucial role in supporting and protecting these organelles, as well as facilitating important cellular processes such as metabolism and transport.


What is compared to a Vaculous?

A vacuole is a membrane-bound organelle found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. It functions to store nutrients, waste products, and other substances. In contrast, a vaculous refers to being empty or devoid of contents.


During transcription what does the messenger rna do?

During transcription, the messenger RNA (mRNA) is synthesized by copying the information found in a gene from DNA. The mRNA carries this genetic information from the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm where it serves as a template for protein synthesis during translation.


What function of free ribosomes?

Ribosomes are organelles within cells and are either bound or free. Organelles are structures inside the cells which perform specific functions. Bound ribosomes are attached to the organelle called the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough because of the presence of the ribosomes) and there is also the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, without attached ribosomes. Ribosomes are protein producing "factories" and are abundant in cells actively involved in protein synthesis. Free ribosomes are scattered throughout the cell and the protein they produce is for usage within the cell. Much of the protein produced by the bound ribosomes is transported for use outside the cell.
