3
What is the central organelle that contains most of the cell's genetic material?
nucleus
What is the term for the living substance inside a cell, excluding the nucleus?
cytoplast
What is the primary function of the cell membrane surrounding the protoplasm?
To separate the cell from its environment and regulate the flow of materials in and out of the cell
What is the significance of the nucleus being a part of the protoplasm?
It allows the cell to store and regulate its genetic material, enabling cell growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli
What would be the likely consequences if a cell's protoplasm were not surrounded by a cell membrane?
The cell would lose its structural integrity, and its contents would spill out, leading to cell death or dysfunction
How does the composition of the protoplasm contribute to the overall functioning of a cell?
The combination of cytoplasm and nucleus in the protoplasm enables the cell to perform various metabolic processes, respond to stimuli, and maintain its internal environment
What is the functional relationship between the cytoplasm and the nucleus within the protoplasm?
The cytoplasm carries out metabolic processes, while the nucleus provides the genetic instructions for these processes to occur
