Solution

Cell organelles:

  1. No, the cytoplasm is not an organelle.
  2. Cell organelles are the cellular components.
  3. These cell organelles include membrane and non-membrane bound organelles that are found inside cells.
  4. Ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, nucleus, chloroplast, etc. are examples of cell organelles.
  5. Cytoplasm, also known as the non-nuclear content of protoplasm, is the semi-fluid component of a cell that is both internal to and exterior to the nuclear membrane.
