A jelly like substance where chemical reactions happen in the cell.
A
cytoplasm
B
nucleus
C
mitochondria
D
vacuole
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cytoplasm: jelly-like substance that fills the cell and where most chemical reactions occur. Nucleus: controls the chemical reactions of the cell. Ribosomes: where protein synthesis occurs.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cytoplasm, or cell fluid, is made up of a jelly-like substance (cytosol) and within that, the organelles. The organelles are the cell’s organs. The cytoplasm is often colourless and is surrounded by the cell membrane which keeps the contents within the cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -This includes catabolic reactions in which molecules are broken down in order to obtain building block molecules for more complex cellular molecules and macromolecules, and anabolic reactions used to synthesize cellular molecules and macromolecules.

Detailed explanation-5: -Complete solution: The term ‘Cytoplasm’ was given by German scientist Eduard Strasburger for the jelly-like part of a cell between the nucleus and cell membrane in 1882. The cytoplasm is divided into two parts, namely, Cytosol and Protoplasm.
