"Cell slap" is a term used in the context of plant biology, specifically referring to the liquid inside the large central vacuole of a plant cell. This liquid, known as cell sap, serves multiple functions within the plant, including:
- Storage of materials: Cell sap stores dissolved nutrients, sugars, and waste products.
- Mechanical support: Cell sap provides rigidity and structure, particularly important in non-woody plants.
The term "cell slap" may also be used in other contexts, but without further information, it is most likely referencing the cell sap within a plant cell.
