PRESENTATION OUTLINE

CELL MEMBRANE

A BARRIER THAT SEPERATES A CELL FROM THE EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT

CYTOPLASM

JELLY LIKE SUBSTANCE THAT CONTAINS DISSOLVED "BUILDING BLOCKS"
The city hall of the city, because it contains past information and important facts about the city, like the cytoplasm contains important organelles of the cell.

NUCLEUS

STORES AND PROTECTS THE DNA OF THE CELL
The library of the city, because the nucleus stores the cells information, just like a library stores information that is open to the public.

CYTOSKELETON

A NETWORK OF PROTEINS THAT SHAPES AND SUPPORTS THE CELL
The cytoskeleton is like brick in any city building because like the building it gives the cell it's shape and support.

SMOOTH ER

REMOVES TOXINS AND PRODUCES LIPIDS
The street cleaners of the city, because they remove the toxins from your body like street cleaners remove the dirt.

ROUGH ER

MEMBRANES STUDDED WITH RIBOSOMES THAT HELP TRANSPORT MATERIALS
The rough ER is like the fed ex truck of the city, because it transports materials throughout the cell.

RIBOSOME

LINK AMINO ACIDS TOGETHER TO FORM PROTEINS
The bridge of the city, because they link amino acids together like a bridge links land together.

GOLGI APPARATUS

PROCESSES, SORTS AND DELIVERS PROTEINS
The post office of the city, because like the rough ER it delivers proteins, but it also sorts and processes them, which compares to the job of a post office.

VESICLE

TRANSPORTS MATERIALS FROM PLACE TO PLACE WITHIN THE CYTOPLASM
The telephone poles of the city, because they transport sound through the city like the vesicle transports materials through the cell.

MITOCHONDRIA

SUPPLYS ENERGY TO THE CELL AND HAS A DOUBLE MEMBRANE
The power plant of the city, because it provides energy to the cell like a power plant supply's energy to the city.

VACUOLE

A FLUID FILLED SAC USED FOR STORING MATERIALS NEEDED BY THE CELL
The storage units of a city, because they store peoples items like the vacuole stores the cells materials.

LYSOSOME

DEFENDS A CELL FROM INVADING VIRUSES AND BREAKS DOWN CELL PARTS
The city's recycling plant, because it breaks down old materials to be used again like the lysosome breaks down old cell parts.

CELL WALL

A RIGID OUTER LAYER IN PLANT AND BACTERIA CELLS PROVIDING CELLS SHAPE
The city's mote, because it provides the shape of the city and gives protection like the cell wall.

CHLOROPLAST

CARRYS OUT PHOTOSYNTHESIS (TURNING SUNLIGHT INTO ENERGY)
The restaurant of a city, because it provides energy to those who eat there, like the chloroplast provides energy when carrying out photosynthesis.
