The protoplasm, which lines the interior of the cell-wall,and which is the essential Kving portion of the cell, consistsof albuminous substance mixed with water and some in-combustible materials, and. it also contains some organiccompounds. It is a homogeneous, soft, gelatinous we usually find it in cells it has a granular andturbid appearance. This arises from an admixture offormative matters, to which the name metaplasm has beenapplied. It is coagulated by heat, and is soluble in
