Vedclass · Answer

(D) Water acts as a $universal \ solvent$ because of its high polarity and ability to form hydrogen bonds with various solutes. This property allows it to dissolve a wide range of substances, including salts, sugars, and proteins, within the cytoplasm. By keeping these diverse molecules in a dissolved or colloidal state, water ensures the $homogeneity$ of the cytoplasm, which is essential for the smooth functioning of metabolic reactions.
