  part of:  living_thing
  part:  cell_wall__cell_membrane__plasma_membrane  a thin membrane around the cytoplasm of a cell; controls passage of substances in and out of the cell
  part:  energid__protoplast  a biological unit consisting of a nucleus and the body of cytoplasm with which it interacts
  part:  cytoplasm  the protoplasm of a cell excluding the nucleus
     part:  microsome  a tiny granule in the cytoplasm
