  2. Cytoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytoplasm

    The cytoplasm describes all the material within a eukaryotic or prokaryotic cell, enclosed by the cell membrane, including the organelles [1] and excluding the nucleus in eukaryotic cells. The material inside the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell and contained within the nuclear membrane is termed the nucleoplasm .

  3. Cytosol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytosol

    [4] [5] Such a soluble cell extract is not identical to the soluble part of the cell cytoplasm and is usually called a cytoplasmic fraction. [6] The term cytosol is now used to refer to the liquid phase of the cytoplasm in an intact cell. [6] This excludes any part of the cytoplasm that is contained within organelles. [7]

    Detailed diagram of lipid bilayer of cell membrane The cell membrane , or plasma membrane, is a selectively permeable [ citation needed ] biological membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell. In animals, the plasma membrane is the outer boundary of the cell, while in plants and prokaryotes it is usually covered by a cell wall .

  6. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four distinct phases: G 1 phase, S phase (synthesis), G 2 phase (collectively known as interphase) and M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis). M phase is itself composed of two tightly coupled processes: mitosis, in which the cell's nucleus divides, and cytokinesis, in which the cell's cytoplasm and cell membrane divides forming two daughter cells.

  7. Nucleoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleoplasm

    Nucleoplasm is quite similar to the cytoplasm, with the main difference being that nucleoplasm is found inside the nucleus while the cytoplasm is located inside the cell, outside of the nucleus. Their ionic compositions are nearly identical due to the ion pumps and permeability of the nuclear envelope, however, the proteins in these two fluids ...

  8. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    In general, mitosis (division of the nucleus) is preceded by the S stage of interphase (during which the DNA replication occurs) and is followed by telophase and cytokinesis; which divides the cytoplasm, organelles, and cell membrane of one cell into two new cells containing roughly equal shares of these cellular components.

  9. Cytoplasmic streaming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytoplasmic_streaming

    Chloroplasts can be seen travelling around the central vacuole of a cell in Rhizomnium punctatum Cytoplasmic streaming in onion epidermal cell. Cytoplasmic streaming, also called protoplasmic streaming and cyclosis, is the flow of the cytoplasm inside the cell, driven by forces from the cytoskeleton. [1]
