The viscid and more or less granular material of vegetable and animal cells, possessed of vital properties by which the processes of nutrition, secretion, and growth go forward; the so-called " physical basis of life;" the original cell substance, cytoplasm, cytoblastema, bioplasm sarcode, etc.
The viscid, translucid, polyphasic colloid with water as the continuous phase that makes up the essential material of all plat and animal cells. It is composed mainly of nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and inorganic salts. The protoplasm surrounding the nucleus is known as the cytoplasm and that composing the nucleus is the nucleoplasm.
The protoplasm is the entire contents of the cell inside the plasmalemma ( cell membrane).
Cell material inside the cell membrane.
Cell material inside the protoplasmic membrane. Protoplasm is composed largely of proteins with significant quantities of fats and carbohydrates and is responsible for all the metabolic activities of the cell.
The living content of cells that include the cytoplasm, nuclei, organelles, etc.
the jelly-like granular material which comprises the living content of cells; it is a complex mixture of organic and inorganic substances in a state of continuous chemical change.
the living substance of a cell (including cytoplasm and nucleus)
a mould of matter in which life is placed
The organized complex of substances (mainly proteins and water) that constitute all plant and animal cells.
a viscous translucent material that makes up the substance of all living cells.
The living portion of a cell as opposed to the non-living cell wall.
a colourless, jelly-like substance that is the living substance of all plant and animal cells
The protoplasm is the colorless material comprising the living part of a cell, including the cytoplasm, nucleus, and other organelles.
The entire contents of a live cell.
protos = first + plasma = a thing formed; living matter (Purkinje).
PRO-tow-plaz-m Living matter. 60
The living contents of a cell.
All the contents of a cell, including the nucleus. (see: cytoplasm)
Substance within and including plasma-membrane of a cell or protoplasm.
A thick, viscous colloidal substance that constitutes the physical basis of all living activities; together with the nucleus it forms the structure of cells.
Substances making up a cell including its exterior membrane.
the basic material of living cells; consists of water, electrolytes (such as sodium and potassium), proteins, lipids and carbohydrates.
In biology, protoplasm is the living substance inside the cell. At the simplest level, it is divisible into cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. It is also sometimes termed "bioplasm", (Beale: meaning the essential substance of living matter within a cell) and is distinct from non-living cell components lumped under "ergastic substances".
