ok inside of a cell you have the nucleus and you have what you call "cytoplasm." cytosol is the part of the cytoplasm that is fluid. around the nucleus, throughout the cell and surrounded by cytoplasm, you have things like the golgi, vesicles, mitochondrian, etc. cytoplasm is jelly like, and it fills the cell. so for instance if you have a little round piece of white paper and in the center of it you draw your nucleus and other stuff that goes in your cell, all of the white still left over..thats cytoplasm. and as for cytosol, i would relate it to jelly. you know when you have a jar of old jelly, so you open it up and theres these little liquidy puddles? the jelly thats still a jelly would be cytoplasm and the liquid puddles are the cytosol. if your making a diagram or a drawing and need ideas on how to draw it or sybolize it just drop one in my inbox. i hope that helped out and you get a good grade!

I had to do an analogy just like that, and I did a house, a couple other ones in my class were airplane, classroom, and town, like you said.
