Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cytoplasm is the gelatinous liquid that fills the inside of a cell. It is composed of water, salts, and various organic molecules. Some intracellular organelles, such the nucleus and mitochondria, are enclosed by membranes that separate them from the cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cytoplasm. The cytoplasm is the gel-like fluid inside the cell. It is the medium for chemical reaction. It provides a platform upon which other organelles can operate within the cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -All of the organelles in eukaryotic cells, such as the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria, are located in the cytoplasm. The portion of the cytoplasm that is not contained in the organelles is called the cytosol. Although cytoplasm may appear to have no form or structure, it is actually highly organized.

Detailed explanation-4: -The term cytosol is now used to refer to the liquid phase of the cytoplasm in an intact cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -No, the cytoplasm is not an organelle. Cell organelles are the cellular components. These cell organelles include membrane and non-membrane bound organelles that are found inside cells. Ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, nucleus, chloroplast, etc.
