A Plant Cell Relates to A School

By: Becca & Mallory

Nucleus

A nucleus in a cell is like an office in a school.

Nucleus cont.

A nucleus contains all the information in a cell, as the office in a school contains all the information on the students.

Nucleolus

A nucleolus is like the kitchen in a school.

Nucleolus cont.

The nucleolus is the central location for making a ribosome.

Cell Membrane

A Cell membrane is like the interior walls of the school.

Cell Membrane cont.

The cell membrane keeps all of the organelles contained in the cell. Just like the interior walls of the school keeps all the students inside.

Cell Wall

The Cell wall is like the exterior brick walls of the school.

Cell Wall cont.

A cell wall is a protective outer covering that protects everything in the cell. Just like The exterior brick walls protect everything and everyone.

Cytoplasm

A cytoplasm is like a school bus.

Cytoplasm cont.

A cytoplasm transports materials to different parts of the cell like a school bus transports kids to the school.

Ribosomes

The ribosomes are like the cooks in a school.

Ribosomes cont.

Ribosomes produce all the protein in the cell just like the cooks in a school produce protein for lunch.

Mitochondria

A mitochondria is like P.E. class a school.

Mitochondria cont.

A mitochondria releases energy to break down sugars just like kids in P.E. class release energy and break down sugar.

Vacuole

A Vacuole is like a trash can in a school.

Vacuole cont.

A vacuole removes unwanted materials in the cell just like a trash can removes unwanted materials in a school.

Golgi Apparatus

A golgi apparatus is like the kids in the school.

Golgi Apparatus cont.

A golgi apparatus processes protein in the cell. Just like the kids processes the food throughout their body.

Chloroplast

A chloroplast is like the school garden.

Chloroplast cont.

A chloroplast attracts the sunlight for photosynthesis just like the plants in the garden attract sunlight for photosynthesis.

Rough E.R.

The rough E.R. is like an elevator in a school.

Rough E.R. cont.

A rough E.R. transports proteins made by the ribosomes just like an elevator transports people.

Smooth E.R.

A smooth E.R. is like a storage room in a school.

Smooth E.R. cont.

A smooth E.R. stores materials just like a storage room.
