The cell is composed of a living substance called proptoplasm. This is present in two forms- cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. The part of protoplasm present within the cell membrane but outside the nuclear membrane is called cytoplasm. it is a semi-liquid substance where many chemical reactions takes place with the help of enzymes. The part of protoplasm present within the nuclear membrane is called nucleoplasm which is a semi-solid substance and consists of chromatin fibres.

What is cytosol and does it contain?

Cytosol is the fluid portion of the cytoplasm surrounding the organelles. Cytosol does not actually contain organelles.


What is the fluid component of the cytoplasm called?

Cytosol!!!


Are Cytosol found in Eukaryote?

Cytosol is the liquid "goo" inside a cell, and I can't think of any (eukaryotic or prokaryotic) that don't have cytosol. So yes, eukaryotic cells do contain cytosol.


What is a synonym for cytosol?

Cytosol is cytosol, as mitochondria are mitochondria. It would be confusing in Science if there were synonyms and so Scientists try to use universal names for things. Cytosol is part of the cytoplasm, but this cannot be used as a synonym as cytoplasm contains all cell organelles as well as cytosol.


Is cytosol surrounded by a membrane?

A bi-layered membrane surrounds the cytosol.


Which viral type gets replicated in the cytosol?

RNA viruses replicate in the cytosol.


Are cytosol and cytoplasm the same?

No, cytosol and cytoplasm are not the same. Cytosol is the liquid component of the cytoplasm, which also includes organelles and other structures within a cell.


Does a cytosol have bacteria?

Yes they do. Cytosol is the matrix within which all the cellular mechanisms occur. There is no organism as such that does not have the cytosol. Viruses obviously do not have a cytosol because they are not organisms. Viruses are obligate parasites which can multiply only within a particular host.


Does cytosol count as a cell organelle?

No, an organelle is defined as a structure in a cell suspended in the cytosol.


What is the purpose of cytosol?

The cytosol serves as the fluid matrix in which organelles are suspended within a cell. It plays a crucial role in cellular processes such as metabolism, signaling, and transport. Many essential cellular reactions take place in the cytosol.


What are cytosols?

Cytosol is a soluble part of cytoplasm. It forms the ground substance or 'background material' of the cytoplasm. It is located between the cell organelles.
