Transcript Cell vs. Prison Cell

Period 3
 Found
in both types of eukaryotic cells
 The nucleus is like the prison warden
because the warden controls all aspects of
the prison and the nucleus controls all
functions of the cell, also they are both the
most important.
 Found
in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic
cells
 The membrane is like the doors and walls
because the both keep things in and out and
will selectively allow entrance.
 Found
only in eukaryotic cells
 The vacuole is like a prison cell because the
vacuole keeps what it stores inside itself and
the prison cells don’t allow the prisoner to
escape.
 Found
in eukaryotic cells
 The mitochondria is like a power generator
because it powers necessary life functions of
the cell and the power generator because it
powers the entire prison.
 Found
in all cells
 The cytoskeleton is like the pillars because
booth support and help keep the structure of
the object, in this case the cell and the
prison.
 Found
only in animal cells
 The lysosome is like the electric chair
because it destroys(dissolves) the food from
the vacuole and the electric chair gets rid of
the prisoner from the cell.
 Found
in Eukaryotic cells
 The Endoplasmic Reticulum(both smooth and
rough) is like the hallways and lanes of a
prison because they both help to transport
things from one place (within cell or prison)
to another.
 Found
in plant cells
 The chloroplasts are like the prison cooks
because the both produce food. The chefs
give food to energize the prisoners and the
chloroplasts give food to energize the cell.
 Found
in all cells
 The ribosome is like convict labor because
the convicts working in the industrial
produce and assemble furniture, cars etc and
the ribosome produces and assembles
proteins.
 Found
only in plant and bacteria cells
 The cell wall is like the outer fence because
the cell wall give shape and protection to the
cell, just as the outer fence does to the
prison.
 Found
in eukaryotic
 The Golgi is like the transport procession
because the both ship exports-transport
items outside of the cell/prison.
 Found
in all cell types
 The cytoplasm is like the actual prison
because the purpose of both is to hold things
in.
 Found
only in eukaryotic
 The nucleolus is like the educational
facilities because the nucleolus has to
assemble and organized the RNA just as the
educational facilities have to organized the
students and help them to learn.

Nucleolus
 Found
in animal cells
 The centriole is like the prison chains
because the centrioles attach to
chromosomes as spindle fibers and pull them
apart just like the prison chains are used to
help keep some of the prisoners apart.
 Found
in eukaryotic cells
 The vesicles are like the prison storage
because the purpose of both is to store semi
important objects.
 Found
in eukaryotic
 The centrosome is like the guards because
the guards pull apart the prisoners just like
the centrosome pulls apart the
chromosomes.
 Found
in prokaryotic
 The capsule is like the barbed wire because
the wire is like another layer of protection to
keep people in and out just like the capsule
is to the cell.
 All
living organisms are composed of cells.
They may be unicellular or multicellular.
 The
cell is the basic unit of life.
 Cells
arise from pre-existing cells.
Simplistic cells
 Only organelle is
ribosomes
 Includes cell wall,
cytoskeleton,
ribosomes, cell
membrane, capsule,
cytoplasm & plasmid
 Pro-no
No
Kary-kernal Nucleus

Prokaryotic
Complex cells
 Many organelles such
as ER, nucleus, golgi,
mitochondria, etc.
 Eu-True
True
Kary-kernal Nucleus

Eukaryotic
Cell wall
 Large central vacuole
 Chloroplasts

Plant
Small vacuoles
 Centriole
 Lysosome

