The difference among cytoplasm, organelles, cytosol and cytoskeleton.

Introduction:

Cell is a fundamental membrane-bound unit containing basic life molecules which compose all living things. Thus, cells are the bridge between chemicals and humans. All of the body functions of a multicellular organism ultimately depend on its individual cells' collective structural and functional capacities. Cells consist of cytoplasm, organelles, cytosol and cytoskeleton.
