The cytoplasm is a gel-like substance within a cell that contains various organelles, enzymes, and other molecules essential for cellular functions. It houses structures like mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and ribosomes, which are involved in energy production, protein synthesis, and metabolism. Additionally, the cytoplasm contains cytosol, a fluid component that facilitates the movement of substances and supports the organelles. It also stores nutrients, ions, and waste products needed for cellular processes.
DNA is primarily stored in the chromosome within the cell nucleus. Some DNA is also present in the mitochondria, which are located in the cytoplasm.
Starch. Not in solution, but stored in organelles, amyloplasts.
The cytoplasm contains substances and enzymes that breakdown nucleic acids (such as DNA). Therefore if the DNA is stored in the nucleus, it is separated and protected from these.
In plant cells, food and water are stored in the central vacuole. Animal cells do not have a central vacuole, so food and water are stored in organelles like mitochondria and the cytoplasm.
Starch molecules are stored in plant cells, primarily in specialized organelles called plastids. In particular, starch is found in the form of granules within structures like chloroplasts, amyloplasts, and sometimes in the cytoplasm.
Glycogen is stored inside a cell in the form of granules in the cytoplasm.

DNA is primarily stored in the chromosome within the cell nucleus. Some DNA is also present in the mitochondria, which are located in the cytoplasm.
A cell that has DNA within its cytoplasm is stored as chromatin. DNA is stored in the nucleus which is located in the cytoplasm.
Starch. Not in solution, but stored in organelles, amyloplasts.
Glycogen is stored inside the cell in the cytoplasm. It is primarily found in the liver and muscle cells, where it serves as a form of energy storage that can be broken down into glucose when needed for energy.
The cytoplasm contains substances and enzymes that breakdown nucleic acids (such as DNA). Therefore if the DNA is stored in the nucleus, it is separated and protected from these.
In animal cells, we can find a cytoplasm, nucleus, sometimes we can find vacuoles and stored food.
The cytoplasm mostly contains organelles. However, it does contain a few other materials. For example, cytoplasm often contains waste products of the cell (that are stored within organelles). It also contains materials that will be used later such as glucose. Cytoplasm is mostly made of water. There are also lipids inside of the cytoplasm, but those are often left-over from the cell membrane.
Triglycerides provide stored energy supply in fat droplets in the cytoplasm. Triglycerides are composed of three fatty acid chains attached to a glycerol molecule and serve as a concentrated form of energy that can be broken down through metabolism to produce ATP for cellular processes.
The plastid is found in the cytoplasm, which is outside the nucleus. It is a specialized structure where starch, oils, proteins or pigments are stored.
