cell swells due to osmosis.
• Because of this the cell can withstand greater pressure.
Cytoplasm :
• It is a jelly-like fluid inside the cell.
• It lies between plasma membrane
and nucleus.
• Many cell organelles lie in the Cytosol
cytoplasm.
• All the cellular chemical reactions
take place in the cytoplasm.
• It stores vital substances like
amino acid, glucose, vitamins etc.
• The part of cytoplasm other than
the organelles is called cytosol.
Cell organelles :
• An organelleOrgans
is a specialised
of the cell subunit within a
cell that has a specific function.
• Example, making new material in the cell,
clearing up the waste material from the cell, etc.
• A cell is able to live and perform all its
function because of these organelles.
• All the cell have the same
organelles, no matter what their
function is or what organism they
are found in.
