Transcript Cell Parts and Function

Cell Analogy
1. The different parts and activities of
a cell can be compared to a factory.
2. The parts of a cell are called
organelles.
3. The activities that a cell does are
called functions.

4. Like a fence, the cell membrane
controls what goes in and out.

5. Like a computer holding
instructions, chromosomes contain
the instruction for directing the
activities of a cell.

6. Like a control room, the nucleus is
surrounded by the nuclear envelope
(controls what goes in and out)

mitochondria converts the energy in
food to energy the cell can use.

instructions from the DNA in the
nucleus to the ribosomes for making
proteins.

proteins produced by ribosomes are
used to build and do things.

body puts a membrane around
materials that need to be
transported.

13. The nucleolus is a darker area in
the nucleus where ribosome parts
are made. This would be like a robot
repair table in the control room.

lysosomes contain chemicals that
break down things in the cell.

15. Plant cells have cell walls and
chloroplasts, but animal cells don't.

16. Cell walls are rigid giving support
and protection to the plant.

17. Chloroplasts make sugar from
water and CO2.
