Cell Wall |
The cell wall is like a restaurant, it encases the restaurant, holds it up, and protects it just as the Cell Wall does for the cell |
|
Ribosome |
In a cell the ribosomes produce protein for the cell and send it to the nucleus just as the waiters take orders and send it back to the kitchen (nucleus) |
|
Lysosomes |
The lysosomes in a cell consume old organelles and waste like all of the trash and leftover food goes to the trash bins in a restaurant |
|
Nucleolus |
The nucleolus is responsible for the production of ribosomes and is in the center of the nucleus, thus it can be seen as the head chef as both are in charge of everything |
|
Golgi Apparatus |
The Golgi apparatus ships protein to the nucleus like a drive through takes orders for food and brings them to the kitchen (nucleus) |
|
Mitochondria |
The mitochondria uses cellular respiration to make energy for the cell just as electricity supplies the whole restaurant with energy |
|
Chloroplast |
The chloroplast converts light energy into chemical energy using photosynthesis just as solar panels on top of the restaurant convert sun light into electricity |
|
Nucleus |
The nucleus is the brain of the cell and stores DNA and RNA which is responsible for telling each organelle what to do, just as the kitchen is the main center of the restaurant where everything is made |
|
Cell Membrane |
The restaurant sorts act as the cell membrane would in the cell. The doors let people in and out of the restaurant just as the cell membrane regulates homeostasis |
|
Cell Membrane |
The restaurant sorts act as the cell membrane would in the cell. The doors let people in and out of the restaurant just as the cell membrane regulates homeostasis |
|
Chromatin |
Chromatin is DNA and is seen as recipes for food as both are complex and provide basis for making of proteins |
|
Nuclear Membrane |
The nuclear Membrane can be seen as the kitchen doors as they both provide entrance to the main component of the restaurant/cell |
|
Cytoplasm |
The cytoplasm encases all the organelles as a jelly like fluid just as the restaurant floor does to the whole restaurant |
|
Vacuole |
The vacuole in a plant cell serves as storage just like the freezer in a restaurant is used as storage for frozen foods |
|
Protein |
Both are the product the cell produces, thus proteins can be seen as food |
|
ER |
The ER transports protein to different organelles, thus it can be seen as food carts as both serve as transportation |
