Cell Parts compared to a city

Cell Membrane

• Like a gatekeeper to the city• Allows certain things to enter or exit the cell• Keeps water from “drowning the cell”

Nucleus

• Like the Mayor• Directs cell activity• Contains the cell’s DNA

Cytoplasm

• Jelly-like substance that keeps everything in their place

Mitochondria

• Like a powerplant• Generate energy for the cell

Ribosome

• Like meat factories• Produce protein for the cell

Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Like Restaraunts• Where Lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates are

made.

Golgi Apparatus

• Like UPS• Package and ship items throughout the cell• Use Vesicles to ships things, Vesicles are like the trucks

Lysosome

• Like the clean up crew• Clean up the cell by digesting worn out

organelles and food particles

Vacuoles

• Like a food pantry• Used to store food, enzymes and other

materials.

Cytoskeleton

• Like scaffolding• Provides support and structure for the cell.

Differences in a plant cell

• Plant cells have cell wall• This is inflexible and provides support and

protection for the cell

Chloroplast

• Like a solar panel• Takes light from the sun and converts it into

energy for the plant cell to use.

Vacuole

• In a plant cell they have one very large vacuole, animal cells have a few small vacuoles.

The cell part that makes protein is:A. cell membraneb. Nucleusc. Cytoplasmd. Mitochondriae. Ribosomef. Endoplasmic reticulumg. Golgi apparatush. Lysosomei. Vacuole

• The cell part that is like a guard that allows things to enter or exit the cell is:

A. cell membraneb. Nucleusc. Cytoplasmd. Mitochondriae. Ribosomef. Endoplasmic reticulumg. Golgi apparatush. Lysosomei. Vacuole

• The cell part that is the powerhouse of the cell is:A. cell membraneb. Nucleusc. Cytoplasmd. Mitochondriae. Ribosomef. Endoplasmic reticulumg. Golgi apparatush. Lysosomei. Vacuole

• The cell part that is in charge of shipping and packaging is:A. cell membraneb. Nucleusc. Cytoplasmd. Mitochondriae. Ribosomef. Endoplasmic reticulumg. Golgi apparatush. Lysosomei. Vacuole

• The cell part that is the cleaning crew is:A. cell membraneb. Nucleusc. Cytoplasmd. Mitochondriae. Ribosomef. Endoplasmic reticulumg. Golgi apparatush. Lysosomei. Vacuole
