Join Pinky and Petunia of the Amoeba Sisters in a review game video! This video provides clues for the viewer to guess the cell organelle or structure before revealing it. As a bonus, towards the end of the video, you'll have the opportunity to label the organelles and structures discussed within both animal and plant cells.

Regarding cytoplasm and cytosol:
**When cytosol isn't included in a definition:**
Cytoplasm defined by the National Human Genome Research Institute as "gelatinous liquid that fills the inside of cells" - cytosol is not mentioned here:
[ Ссылка ]

Cytoplasm defined as a "thick solution that fills each cell" and "includes all material inside cell outside of nucleus" [ Ссылка ]

**When cytoplasm and cytoplasm ARE differentiated:**

***And what we've observed about diagrams****
Many cell diagrams used by students will only label cytoplasm [not going into cytosol] as shown with the linked sources below this paragraph. Since organelles are often given different colors, it doesn't differentiate that cytoplasm would also include the organelles while cytosol would not. And while we do want to emphasize: the diagrams are NOT incorrect- instead, it's just that by not including cytosol, it doesn't differentiate between the two. We may decide to differentiate them more going forward as we just never mention the liquid portion, cytosol. We only talk about cytoplasm as a collective unit.

FURTHER READING:
(1) Plant Cells and lysosomes?

The question of lysosomes in plants is a debated one! We often say "most" plants in this video do not have lysosomes - as our favorite peer-reviewed textbook Openstax states [our listed source here for these comparisons] [ Ссылка ]

However, you will find many excellent sources that seem to conflict on this topic. Plant vacuoles that function like lysosomes can even have some of the digesting enzymes that lysosomes in animal cells do. It can matter whether one defines this word based on what it does (its function) or a specific structural definition for lysosome. However, we think it's a great point that how it is defined makes a huge difference. It reminds us of a Short we recently released regarding biology vocabulary [ Ссылка ]

And we think it is important to know that plant cells can do these functions whether one calls it a lysosome or a vacuole. We also find it interesting to mention: the Wikipedia page for "lysosome" has a portion dedicated to this debate and lists some sources for both.

(2) We mention at the end that there are some medical conditions caused by organelles that do not function properly. These are some examples:
