Create a city of your choice and assign each of the major organelles from our guided notes to a part of the city.
Draw your city on a piece of paper. Use your creativity and imagination!
Write your analogy to show the similarity between the cell part and the part of the city. Be sure to explain the reasoning behind your analogies. The cell analogies and functions should be written.
Example- The nucleus controls the cell just like how town hall coordinates a city.




You will create this on a sheet of paper or on a digital document that works best for you.



Make sure to include each organelle, what it does, and what it could represent within a city! Be creative!

Answer:

A cell is like a city

Example

The nucleus controls the cell just like how the town hall coordinates a city.

1) The vacuole is a supply centre just as they are the large groceries in the city.

2) The mitochondrion is the supplier of ATP to the cell, as well as the electric power plant in the city.

3) The Golgi Apparatus is responsible for packaging and modifying proteins as well as distributing chemical messages in the cells just as the post office works in the city.

4) The ribosomes they produce from raw material RNA finished products named proteins as the factories do.

5) The cell wall protects the cell as the fortifications do in the city.

6) The cell Membrane allows the communication of the cell with the environment through the transport of information just like the city limits, through tollbooth or carrier proteins.

7) Lysosomes process cellular material down to simpler and smaller molecules like the city's recycling plant does.

8) The endoplasmic reticulum allows the movement of proteins in the cell as do the roads in the city.

Step-by-step explanation:

Unfortunately, I do not know the organelles that you present in your guide, however, I give you an example with the most important.

  1. The vacuole is responsible for storing food, liquids and wastes and/or enzymes
  2. The mitochondrion is the energy-producing organelle synthesizing ATP
  3. The Golgi apparatus handles synthesized proteins to transport them to other places in cells
  4. Ribosomes are responsible for reading DNA and producing proteins.
  5. The cell wall gives structure and protects the cell.
  6. The cell membrane regulates transport into and out of the cell.
  7. Lysosomes are responsible for degrading intracellular material.
  8. The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes that allows the movement of proteins and other molecules.
