Fluids located outside a cell?

Extracellular fluid is fluid located outside a cell. The average person has about 19 liters of extracellular fluid in his body.


Fluid found OUtSiDE of a cell is called?

cytoplasm


Which organelle generates movement of fluid outside the cell?

The organelle that generates movement of fluid outside the cell is the cytoplasm. It usually produces a fluid which is known as cytosol.


What two types of fluid make up the fluid inside the cell?

The two types of fluid that make up the fluid inside the cell are cytoplasm and extracellular fluid. Cytoplasm is the intracellular fluid that fills the cell's interior and surrounds the organelles, while extracellular fluid is the fluid outside the cell that bathes the cell in its environment.


All the parts of the cell outside of the nucleus are found in the gooey fluid of the?

All the parts of the cell outside of the nucleus are found in the cytoplasm. The cytoplasm is a jelly-like substance that fills the cell and provides a medium for the organelles to carry out their functions.


If extracellular fluid around a cell is hypotonic then the cytoplasm within the cell is what?

the outside would be hypertonic.


What is the fluid on the outside of neurons similar to?

The fluid on the outside of neurons is similar to the intracellular fluid inside the cell, as it contains ions and other molecules necessary for cell function. It also helps create an electrical charge difference across the cell membrane, which is important for neuronal communication.


What will happen if there is no osmosis in an organism?

Cells cannot be alive and function without osmosis. Osmosis helps to maintain an equilibrium between the pressure within the cell and outside the cell. If the fluid volume within the cell is more than the fluid volume outside the cell, the cell swells up due to the excess fluid and pressurize the cell wall causing it to burst. If the fluid volume outside the cell is less than the fluid volume inside the cell, the pressure exerted on the cell wall from outside will cause the cell to cave in and collapse. In plants osmosis helps to absorb water and nutrients and transfer it to other parts of the cell. In animal cells it aids in distribution of nutrients and removal of toxic wastes. Living organisms cannot live without the process of osmosis.


All the parts of the cell outside of the nucleus are found in the gooey fluid of the what?

cytoplasm


The cells interior is concidered isotonic to the surrounding fluid when?

The cell's interior is considered isotonic to the surrounding fluid when there is an equal concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell, resulting in no net movement of water across the cell membrane. This balance prevents the cell from either shrinking or swelling due to osmosis.


How does a cell perform?

A cell performs pinocytosis when it needs a fluid that's outside of the cell. It does this by taking in the fluid particle in through the cell membrane. It wraps the particle in a layer of the membrane. See the related link for an example.


If cytoplasm and fluid outside the cell have the same concentration it is called?

Isotonic concentration
