Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cytoplasm is the semifluid substance that surrounds the organelles within a cell but outside the nucleus. A is incorrect because nucleoplasm refers to the semifluid substance inside the nucleus. C is incorrect because extracellular fluid refers to fluid outside the cell, not inside. D is incorrect because cellular waste material is not necessarily always in the cytoplasm. E is incorrect because products of the nucleus are usually either mRNA or proteins that are transported out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm.
