Deuteroplasm

/ˌdjuːtərəˈplæzəm/ noun

Definition

The nutritive or food-storing material in an egg cell, distinct from the active protoplasm that forms the actual embryo.

Etymology

From Greek deuteros (second) + plasma (formed substance). This term from embryology describes the 'second substance' in an egg—the yolk and reserves that nourish development, as opposed to the primary cytoplasm.

Kelly Says

Chicken yolks are basically deuteroplasm! Scientists realized eggs have two totally different components: the living cell machinery and the stored food, which is why this word was invented to avoid confusion when studying how embryos develop.
