Explain the difference between cytoplasm, cell membrane and nucleus?
Answers
In eukaryotic cells, which have a nucleus, the cytoplasm is everything between the plasma membrane and the nuclear envelope. In prokaryotes, which lack a nucleus, cytoplasm simply means everything found inside the plasma membrane.
Answer:
Cell membrane : The cell membrane is the semipermeable membrane of a cell that surrounds and encloses its contents of cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. The cell membrane separates the cell from the surrounding interstitial fluid.
Cytoplasm : Cytoplasm is a thick solution that fills each cell and is enclosed by the cell membrane. It is mainly composed of water, salts, and proteins. In eukaryotic cells, the cytoplasm includes all of the material inside the cell and outside of the nucleus.
Nucleus : The nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle that contains genetic material (DNA) of eukaryotic organisms.Anatomically the nucleus is made up of several components: nuclear envelope, nuclear lamina, nucleolus, chromosomes, nucleoplasm are some of these components.
