Cell Analogy Project Name:______________________ Now that you have learned about the organelles in a cell, you need to think of an analogy, comparing the cell and it’s organelles to something of your choice, as I did below, comparing a cell to a factory. There is an example of comparing a cell to an ant colony on the wall, you may look at that example but you cannot use it. This project should be on paper LARGER than notebook paper, and should be in full color. The following criteria will be graded: /10pts Make sure you include a color labeled picture of what you are comparing your cell to (even though my picture is not labeled. This is NOT a picture of a cell, but of a soccer field or Pizza hut, or a car etc.) /5pts Make sure you list and compare each of the 10 organelles to something in your picture (use a key if necessary) /10pts Make sure you include a typed/word processes chart with the function of each part of your analogy, and why it is like the organelle. Please choose ONE type of cell (plant or animal), and check off each organelle as you add it in your chart: Plant Cell Animal Cell Nucleus Mitochondrion Nucleus Mitochondrion Cell wall cell membrane flagella cell membrane Chloroplast ribosomes lysosome ribosomes Golgi body Endoplasmic reticulum Golgi body Endoplasmic reticulum vacuole lysosome Contractile vacuole cytoskeleton Please attach this checklist to your analogy Due ___________________________ I have included a chart as an example The Cell as a Factory: Factory Part Function Organelle Central Office Manages activities, initiates production, controls activities of factory Nucleus Assembly Line Assembles raw materials to manufacture items Ribosome Packaging & Shipping Packs products for distribution Golgi Bodies Conveyer Belt Moves product within the factory Endoplasmic reticulum Generator Produces energy for the factory Mitochondrion Storage area Stores materials for later use Vacuole Collection center Breaks down and recycles used parts Lysosome Door Allows for things to enter and leave the factory Cell membrane Bricks and Steel Construction materials that keep the factory from collapsing cytoskeleton Trucks/ 18 Wheelers Move the factory when it needs to relocate centrioles Due to Murphy’s Law, (and in order to avert technical difficulties, computer glitches, time warps, black holes, gremlins, natural and unnatural disasters) please do not wait until the last minute to complete or print your project. Late projects are assessed 10% per day.
