A Cell is like a Factory How can a cell be like a factory??? • In a factory, you have many different tasks being completed in the same building. – Ex. The building supports/shelters the workers, workers build goods, maintenance crews clean up messes, shipping department gets goods ready to leave the factory and so on…. • A cell can be thought of as a "factory," with different departments each performing specialized tasks. The Cell wall is like a….. • a security Gate – A security gate protects the factory and helps keep it safe. – A cell wall does the same thing for a plant cell! The Nucleus is like….. • THE BIG BOSS!! (CEO) The boss controls all of the activity inside the cell • The nucleus does the same thing for plant and animal cells Cytoplasm is like………. • The factory floor. The floor of the factory has all the workers, machines, equipment on it • Cytoplasm holds all of the organelles (cell parts) in the plant and animal cells Ribosomes are like…. • Workers on the assembly line…they are responsible for building the goods in a factory • Ribosomes assemble (build) proteins Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) is like……. • An assembly line….(where the workers do their work) Items move along a conveyer belt to different parts of the plant • ER moves items to different parts of the cell in the same way! The Golgi Apparatus is like….. • The Finishing/Packaging Department • In the cell the golgi finishes proteins and packages them to be sent to other parts of the cell or to other cells. The cell membrane is like… • Shipping and Receiving Department: – This department of a factory regulates what enters and leaves the building – A cell membrane does the same thing for plant and animal cells! Lysosomes are like….. • Maintenance/janitor crews……in a factory these guys break down, clean up, and repair items in and around the factory • Lysosmes do the same thing in the cell Mitochondria and Chloroplasts are like….. • Power Stations……the power station supplies energy to the factory • Mitochondria (animal cells) and Chloroplasts (plant cells) do this for a cell!
