Cell Membrane- A cell membrane is like a bodyguard, because the cell membrane controls
what goes and out of the cell like how a bodyguard controls who goes in and out of a mall.
Ribosomes-Ribosomes are like a factory, because ribosomes make proteins like factories
make products.
Golgi Apparatus- the Golgi apparatus is like a post office because it receives molecules and
changes and sorts them like a post office deals with mail.
Mitochondria- like how mitochondria convert energy from the sun into food and breaks it
down the human digestive system does something similar but energy for the human body.
Nucleus- The nucleus is like the CEO of a company. Oversees company activities and leads,
just as the nucleus does for a cell.
Lysosomes- much like a trash can the lysosomes are used to digest waste and worn cell parts
and foreign invaders.
ER- The ER is like a highway system because the ER’s tube system is used to move materials
form place to place like a highway.
Cell wall- Supports and protects while still letting materials pass like a bullet proof vest
protects the user.
Cytoplasm-A fluid like material kind of like jello salad how it surrounds the cell organelles,
and the jello surrounds the fruit.
Chloroplast- Converts the suns energy into high sugars much like solar panels turn the suns
energy in to electric.
