4) Cytoplasm
Cytoplasm refers to everything present inside the cell except the nucleus.
The cytoplasm consists of a cytosol; a gel-like substance that contains
cell organelles ex: mitochondria and Golgi apparatus
The cytoplasm is colorless and has about 80% water along with various
nutrients required for the cell.
It has elastic property thus helping in the movement of materials inside
the cell by a process called cytoplasmic streaming.
