Solution
The correct option is C Protoplasm Protoplasm is a colloid found in the plasma membrane. Protoplasm is divided into two parts as cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. The colloid found inside the nucleus is known as nucleoplasm. Cytoplasm is the jelly-like substance found between the plasma membrane and nuclear membrane. Thus, protoplasm = cytoplasm + nucleoplasm.
