& Cell Organelles Cells – the basic unit of life Organelles - small structures inside a cell with specific functions. Analogy – Innovate Manhattan
Cell Membrane/Plasma Membrane Function: Separates the inside of the cell from the outside environment. Lets some materials pass in and out. Structure: Analogy – The front office and the main door
Cytoplasm Analogy – All air, water, life that is in IMCS. Function: All cell contents that lie between the cell membrane and the nucleus. Structure: Analogy – All air, water, life that is in IMCS.
Nucleus Nucleus Function: controls activities of the cell and contains the hereditary material (DNA) Structure: Analogy – The Principal, Ms. Simmi
Mitochondria Mitochondria Function: Produce energy for the cell – site of cellular respiration. “The Powerhouse” Structure: Double membrane-bound, kidney shaped. Analogy – Con Edison who gives us power.
Vacuoles Function: Storage for water, nutrients or waste. Vesicles Function: Storage for water, nutrients or waste. Structure: small membrane-bound organelle. Analogy – Lockers and cabinets
H) Ribosomes Function: Makes proteins. Structure: Free Ribosomes Function: Makes proteins. Structure: Analogy – Operations (the people who build the school)
Chloroplasts (Plants only) Function: site of photosynthesis (converting sun and CO2 into sugar). Structure: Membrane bound organelles that contain chlorophyll Analogy – Solar Panels (if we had them)
Cell Wall (Plant cells only) Function: Provides support for the cell and the plant. Structure: Made of cellulose Analogy- The building
Cell Parts Analogy Create an analogy (besides the city analogy) for the cell and its parts Possible ideas: Stadium School Country Restaurant House Mall Waterpark
Stadium Example: Cell membrane: wall of stadium, gates Cytoplasm: everything inside the stadium. Nucleus: the control room for the stadium. Etc…
