Cell City / Inspiration Lab Name______________________ Period________ Lab#______ Introduction: Structure and function are related. This is true of the city you live in, and the cells that make you a living organism. Without our rigid skeletal system, we’d be a blob on the floor. Without our elastic muscular system, we wouldn’t be able to move, digest our food, or circulate our blood. City roads and railway tracks provide transportation. You couldn’t shop, visit friends and family, or attend school without adequate transportation systems. Our bodies have transportation systems too. Each cell in our body has a transportation system. City dumps provide a place to store waste. Our bodies and all living cells must remove wastes as well. Supermarkets and restaurants provide food. Our bodies need food and so do all cells. Cells, or bodies, or cities can’t thrive unless they can perform all the functions needed to sustain life. Purpose: In this exercise, you will discover the functions of various cell organelles in life processes. You will then design a city based on the functions of cell organelles. Each organelle will represent a corresponding part of a city. Procedure: 1. Complete the Cell Part / City Part Chart and show it to your instructor for approval. 2. Use the software program Inspiration to design your city. 3. Each organelle/ part of city must be labeled with reference to both the organelle and city structure being represented. EX: Austen Nucleus City Hall or City Hall Anytown (nucleus). 4. Be sure all organelles are used. Graphics and clip arts are nice but the organelle/structure relationship is the one to concentrate on.
