Question

Which of the following statement is incorrect about cytoplasm?

• A. It is colurless
• B. Behaves like a sol-gel
• C. Very good conductor of electricity
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

None of the above

Basically cytoplasm is the substance that fills the cell.It is a jelly like substance and it is made up of eighty percent water and is usually clear and colourless.It is thought that the component molecules and structures of the cytoplasm behave at times like a disordered colloidal solution(sol) and at other times like an integrated network,forming a solid mass (gel).This theory thus proposes that the cytoplasm exists in distinct fluid and solid phases depending on the level of interaction between cytoplasmic components.Cytoplasm also constitutes numerous salts and is a very good conductor of electricity.

So, the correct answer is 'None of the above'.
