The active, energy-consuming part of a cell's cytoplasm that is responsible for producing work and energy.
From Greek 'ergon' (work) and 'plasma' (molded substance/cytoplasm). This biological term was used in early cell biology to distinguish the metabolically active regions of cells from less active areas.
Ergoplasm is basically the cell's powerhouse—it's where all the chemical reactions happen that turn food into the energy your cells need to do their jobs, making it the literal 'working' part of your cells.
