Cytoplasm

The Organelle **Cytoplasm** in Cells


 * Discovery

-discovered in 1835

- no single scientist can be credited for discovering cytoplasm the discovery was possible due to contribution of several scientists, including Schleiden and Schwann ||  ||
 * Function

-within the cell membrane of all cell types and contains and supports all organelles and cell parts

-it is a thick, semi-fluid

- mainly composed of water, salts, and proteins

-the function relates with its structure by just a filling substance to hold up organelles

- made of water up to 80% nucleic acids, enzymes, lipids, non-organic ions, amino acids, carbohydrates, and lightweight molecular compounds || ||
 * In cells..

-cytoplasm is present within the cell membrane of all cell types

-works in conjunction with all organelles, the organelles get support to stay in the correct spot in the cell from cytoplasm

-bigger cells call for more cytoplasm, and smaller cells do not have as much; just enough for the cell to fill within their cell membrane

-all cells have cytoplasm but an example of a cell from the human body: a basal cell from skin tissue includes cytoplasm in their cell to have the cell function successfully

-the liquid component of cytoplasm: cytosol, churns and moves within the cytoplasm making the cytoplasm have a movement called cyclosis || || Cytoplasm: organelles
