Cell Analogy

Cell Analogy

• 1. The different parts and activities of a cell
  can be compared to a factory.
• 2. The parts of a cell are called organelles.
• 3. The activities that a cell does are called
  functions.

• 4. Like a fence, the cell membrane controls what
  goes in and out.

• 5. Like a computer holding instructions,
  chromosomes contain the instruction for directing
  the activities of a cell.

Cell Parts and Function

• 6. Like a control room, the nucleus is surrounded
  by the nuclear envelope (controls what goes in
  and out)

Cell Parts and Function

• 7. Like a power plant, the mitochondria converts
  the energy in food to energy the cell can use.

• Cell Factory

10
Cell Parts and Function

• 8. Like an assembly line, the endoplasmic
  reticulum is where stuff is made.

11

• Cell Factory

12
Cell Parts and Function

• 9. Like robots, ribosomes make the proteins
  produced by the cell.

• Cell Factory

14
Cell Parts and Function

• 10. Messenger RNA takes instructions from the DNA
  in the nucleus to the ribosomes for making
  proteins.

15

• Cell Factory

16
Cell Parts and Function

• 11. Like stuff made by robots, the proteins
  produced by ribosomes are used to build and do
  things.

17

• Cell Factory

18
Cell Parts and Function

• 12. Like a packaging room, the Golgi body puts a
  membrane around materials that need to be
  transported.

19

• Cell Factory

20
Cell Parts and Function

• 13. The nucleolus is a darker area in the nucleus
  where ribosome parts are made. This would be
  like a robot repair table in the control room.

21

• Cell Factory

22
Cell Parts and Function

• 14. Like a garbage service, lysosomes contain
  chemicals that break down things in the cell.

23

• Cell Factory

24
Cell Parts and Function

• 15. Plant cells have cell walls and chloroplasts,
  but animal cells don't.

25
Cell Parts and Function

• 16. Cell walls are rigid giving support and
  protection to the plant.

26
Cell Parts and Function

• 17. Chloroplasts make sugar from water and CO2.
