Cell Organelle Activity
Begin with an empty cell (animal cell).
Task #1: Add organelles to your animal cell that accomplish the following tasks. Include as much detail as possible.
Create a protein (Central Dogma of Biology)
Create ribosomes
Task #2: Add organelles to your animal cell that accomplish the following tasks: Include as much detail as possible.
Move protein from ribosome located on the rough ER to the outside of the cell
Synthesize lipids
Task #3: Add organelles to your animal cell that accomplish the following tasks: Include as much detail as possible.
Digest bacteria carried to the cells by white blood cells
Break down macromolecules
Recycle old cell parts
Aptosis
Break down lipids
Task #4: Add organelles to your animal cell that accomplish the following tasks: Include as much detail as possible.
Create muscle contraction
