Cell City Analogy (18 points)
In a far away city called Grant City, the main export and
production product is the steel widget. Everyone in the town has
something to do with steel widget making and the entire town is
designed to build and export widgets. The town hall has the
instructions for widget making, widgets come in all shapes and
sizes and any citizen of Grant can get the instructions and begin making their own widgets.
Widgets are generally produced in small shops around the city, these small shops can be
built by the carpenter's union (whose headquarters are in town hall).
After the widget is constructed, they are placed on special carts which can deliver the
widget anywhere in the city. In order for a widget to be exported, the carts take the
widget to the postal office, where the widgets are packaged and labeled for export.
Sometimes widgets don't turn out right, and the "rejects" are sent to the scrap yard where
they are broken down for parts or destroyed altogether. The town powers the widget shops
and carts from a hydraulic dam that is in the city. The entire city is enclosed by a large
wooden fence, only the postal trucks (and citizens with proper passports) are allowed
outside the city.
Match the parts of the city (underlined) with the parts of the cell.

Create Your Own Analogy (30 points)
Create your own analogy of the cell using a different model. Some ideas might be a
school, a house, a car, a manufacturing facility (factory), a city, a sport’s team or
anything you can imagine. You may do one of the following options to complete this
assignment: 1. You can draw the analogy and label the corresponding parts in your
analogy and where they correspond to the cell. 2. You can write a story describing your
analogy. You must underline all of the parts in your analogy that represent a cell
structure/organelle. You must also make a list of the structures and organelles with their
corresponding analogy structure. See the Cell As a City analogy on the previous page for
an example of this technique. No matter which method you choose you must include the
following organelles in your analogy: cell membrane, cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum,
ribosomes, protein (product made), Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, nucleus, nucleolus,
and lysosomes. This is worth 30 points of the total project and will tell me if you have
really learned what you need to know about cells. Please do not forget to do this critical
step!
An example of a Cell As a Factory (Option 1) would be the following:
Jobs in the Factory Cell Organelle as it relates to the factory
Shipping/Receiving
Department &
Doors of Factory
The doors of the factory let certain people through while others are not allowed to
pass in or out of the factory. This allows the factory to have structural support and
protects it from others. This is just like the cell membrane which lets certain
materials pass into or out of the cell because it is semi-permeable. The shipping and
receiving department of the factory which is also part of the doors of the factory
must supply the factory with raw materials coming into the factory and ship the finish
product out to its suppliers. The cell membrane must also do this for necessary
nutrients to pass into the cell and allow waste products and proteins to be exported out
of the cell.
Name _________________ Date ____________

# _____
Factory Floor
The factory floor is where all of the materials are moved around and where the other
parts of the factory are located on the inside just like the cytoplasm in a cell is where
organic compounds react and are moved around and the place where the organelles are
found.
Central Executive
Office/Chief
Executive Officer
(CEO)
The central executive office runs the factory and controls all of its activity. The cell’s
nucleus has the instructions for all cell activity and determines what proteins are to be
made and stores all the plans for any proteins that the cell currently makes or has made
in the past. The central executive officer has the blueprints for making the product
and tells the workers which products to build and when to make them. This is like the
nucleolus which makes ribosomes with the instructions from the nucleus. These
ribosomes are later sent to the cytoplasm (factory floor) and the ER (assembly line)
where they will be further processed.
Assembly line
(where workers do
their work)
The assembly line is the place where the unfinished product is assembled. The ER is
like the assembly line because it uses the instructions from the nucleus to assemble
proteins (RER) or lipids (SER) which will later be transported to the Golgi apparatus.
Workers in the
assembly line
Finished product
Finishing/Packaging
Department
The assembly line workers read plans to assemble the parts of what will be the
finished product. This is analogous to the ribosome which is made in the nucleolus
and functions to make protein, the cell’s final product.
The finished product (let’s say copy paper) is the product being made by the factory.
This is analogous to specific types of protein that are made from the instructions
located in the nucleus of the cell.
The finishing/packaging department is responsible for inspecting the product for
flaws, cleaning the product, wrapping it so that it is not broken during shipping, and
transporting the finished product out of the factory. The Golgi apparatus is like the
finishing/packaging department in that it takes the assembled protein from the ER,
further processes it, and forms a vesicle for transportation of the protein out of the cell
(exocytosis).
Maintenance Crew
The maintenance crew helps to keep everything orderly, to get rid of the trash, and to
repair or dispose of old machinery. The maintenance crew also functions as a second
line of defense if someone were to pass through the front door by chasing them out of
the factory. This is like the lysosomes in that they break down (digest) old, worn out
organelles and serve as a line of defense for the cell by destroying viruses or bacteria
that may enter the cell.
Power Plant
The power plant provides electricity (energy) that is made from generators which
burn fuel and produce heat, which is used to make steam and then converted into
electricity. This supply of electricity allows the factory’s machines to run just like the
mitochondria provides energy in the form of ATP to the cell so it’s organelles can do
work.

The Edible Cell/Cell Model Project Guidelines (50 points)
Purpose: To construct a 3-d model of a typical plant or animal cell
using materials that are edible.
Rules for Constructing the Cell:
1. The models must include the following organelles:
a. cell membrane
b. nuclear membrane
c. nucleus
d. nucleolus
e. mitochondria
f. ribosomes
g. rough endoplasmic reticulum
h. smooth endoplasmic reticulum
i. cytoplasm (cytosol)
j. lysosomes/peroxisomes
k. Golgi apparatus (Golgi bodies)
2. If your group is constructing a plant cell, the model must also include a
cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole.
3. If your group is constructing an animal cell, the model must include
centrioles and some type of motile structure (flagellum or cilia).
4. At least half (50%)of the cell organelles/structures must be edible.
5. The cell model must be constructed on or in a sturdy container to prevent
damage, leakage, and or spillage during the activity.
Things to Remember
*The container and all other food items must be brought into room 113 before
school and placed in a bag that is labeled with your name and class period.
**The cell model will be scored using the scoring rubric designed by Mrs.
Mohan.
***You and your group will be asked questions concerning the
structures/organelles and what they function to do in the cell.
