3. The rubber inside of the soccer ball is like a cell membrane, because it is thin and flexible. When poked, the rubber can release or let in air, just how the cell membrane can regulates what enters and leaves the cell.

4. The mitochondria is like a goal keeper, because the goal keeper transfers possession from the opposing team to his team. That is similar to the mitochondria because it converts energy to make it more convenient for the cell.

5. A centriole is like a coach because a coach organizes a team and divides a team into different position. This is similar to a centriole because the centriole organizes cell division.

6. When the game is about to start and the ball is in the center of the field, the ball is like the nucleolus. It is like the nucleolus because the ball is in a small region, the teams get into position, and the game starts. The ribosome assembly begins in the nucleolus.

7. The ball bag is like a vacuole because it is a sack that stores soccer balls and they are needed to play soccer and for a team to function.

8. Team captains are like the cytoskeleton because when teammates start to get out of position, the team captain tell the teammates to get back into position. The cytoskeleton helps the cell maintain its shape.

9. A soccer field is like the cytoplasm, because it contains the players, ball, and goals. It does not include the stands. The cytoplasm includes all of the cells contents outside the nucleus.

10. The nucleus is like the center circle of the field. It usually contains a player and the ball. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons and is in the center of the cell.

11. Chromosomes are like soccer players, because soccer players can be on the bench or on the field. Chromosomes can be in the nucleus or in the cytoplasm.

12. The cell wall is like the material around the outside of the soccer ball, because it is a strong supporting around the rubber part of the soccer ball. It prevents the ball from being popped easily.
