Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cytosol is composed largely of water, along with various ions and molecules dissolved in it. While it does support the cell and contain various enzymes that carry out metabolic processes, it is not a static region of the cell nor does it contain DNA. While some chemical modifications can occur in the cytosol, it is not primarily responsible for chemically modifying proteins and other molecules.
