1. Cell Membrane is like a FENCE because it protects the cell by surrounding it, just like the fence protecting the house.
2. Chromosomes is like a FAMILY ... Chromosomes in a cell is like a blood related just like a Family because just like a chromosomes it contains and pass on the DNA and genes, the DNA and genes is passed from parents to offspring in the family.
3. Nucleolus is like WATER PIPES ... Nucleolus produce proteins which are very important to the cell just like the water pipes produce water that is very important to the house.
4. Golgi apparatus is like a MAIL BOX ... Just like the mail box it processes and packages proteins for delivery to other organelles in the cell after they have been synthesized.
5. Endoplasmic Reticulum is like the KITCHEN ... where we made food and deliver it to family just like the ER where proteins and lipids are being mad.
6. Centriole is like a CLOTHING RACK ... because Centriole organizes cell division and just like the clothing rack it organizes different sizes and clothes.
7. Lysosome is like a TRASHCAN ... Lysosomes are cellular organelle that contains acid hydrolase enzymes that break down waste materials and cellular debris, just like the trash can where we disposed our trash.
8. Cytoplasm is like FLOORS because the cytoplasm in a cell allows the organelles to move freely and safely around and provides support for the cell just like the floors of a house allows people to roam there house freely. Also, the cytoplasm provides support for the cell just like the floor of a house provides support for the humans on it and the walls around it.
9. Nucleus is like a HOUSE ... because it keeps and maintains the integrity of these genes and to control the activities of the cell. Also, the cell controls everything in the cell just like the house controls everything on the property.
10. Mitochondria are like a POWERHOUSE ... mitochondria create energy for the cell just like powerhouse creates and

    is something that lets some things in and some things out of the cell. It is an outer cover for the cell. If the cell membrane was non existences the cell would spill all over the place. Its function is to protect the integrity of the interior of the cell by allowing certain substances into the cell, while keeping other substances out. It is composed of a thin, double-layered sheet of lipids, around the Cell and is a protective membrane layer around every Cell.…

    Cell membrane- The cell membrane is a thin semi-permeable membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell. Its function is to protect the integrity of the interior of the cell by allowing certain substances into the cell, while keeping other substances out. It also serves as a base of attachment for the cytoskeleton in some organisms and the cell wall in others. Thus the cell membrane also serves to help support the cell and help maintain its shape.…

    The main organelle is the nucleus. I think the nucleus is like the hospital administration because the nucleus is the core of the cell that handles everything, and the hospital administration handles everything that goes on in the hospital. Without the “cores” for both the hospital and the cell, neither could properly functions. The nucleolus is the center of the nucleus, and it basically sends out all of the other organelles that work within the cell. I compared the nucleolus to the hospital's CEO, who is the main person in the administration. He rules the whole administration, therefore, he is the grand master and without him the organelles/hospital staff would not know where to be to do their jobs. The cytosol is the main liquid, where all of the organelles are positioned. I compared this to the actual hospital building, because though the building is not a liquid, it is where all of the people are "positioned," or where they all work. The centrioles are rings of 9 groups of microtubules. They are part of the cytoskeleton. They help make the cell expand. I compared this to the architects and construction workers who expand the hospitals. Centrosomes are made up of centrioles, and they are even bigger on cell expansion. I compared them to the planning committee that discusses expansion of the hospital, because they are ones who plan on how they are going to follow through with the expansions. The cell's Golgi transports important "packages" all around the cell, sending out important information. I related this to the hospital's mail department, and the series of pneumatic tubes spread throughout the hospital, because the mail department is where things are packaged up to be sent to and throughout the hospital, and the pneumatic tubes send things to other parts of the cell. The lysosome kills all of the bad bacteria so that it can't infect the cell. I compared this to the hospital incinerator, because the…
