Which substance is described as a colorless jellylike material found inside cells?

Cytoplasm
Protoplasm
Nucleus
Adipose tissue

The correct answer is: Protoplasm

The substance that is described as a colorless jellylike material found inside cells is protoplasm. Protoplasm is a collective term that encompasses the cytoplasm and the nucleus. It is the living substance of the cell, responsible for maintaining cellular processes. Cytoplasm refers specifically to the gel-like fluid and organelles found outside the nucleus within the cell membrane, while the nucleus is the membrane-bound structure that contains the cell's genetic material. Adipose tissue is a type of connective tissue composed of fat cells and does not describe the jellylike material present in cells. Thus, protoplasm is the most accurate choice as it includes all cellular components that contribute to the structure and function of cells.
