CYTOSKELETON

SUPPORTS AND SHAPES CELL
The pillars support the roller coaster, and shapes the path of where the ride is going to go, just as the cytoskeleton supports and shapes the cell.

NUCLEUS

STOREHOUSE FOR GENETIC INFO
The map stores information about the park, just like the nucleus stores information for the DNA.

ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM

HELPS PRODUCE, PROCESS, AND DISTRIBUTE PROTEINS AND LIPIDS
The workers at the park cook and sell the hamburgers just like the ER produces and distributes proteins.

RIBOSOMES

LINK AMINO ACIDS TOGETHER TO FORM PROTEINS
The chains from the amusement park shuttles link the other shuttles together just as the ribosomes link amino acids together.

GOLGI APPARATUS

MODIFY, PACKAGE, AND TRANSPORT PROTEINS
The rails and chains from the ride waiting lines keep the people together and guide them to the right cart just like the Golgi apparatus packages and transports proteins.

VESICLES

ISOLATE AND TRANSPORT SPECIFIC MOLECULES
The train contains and transports people through the ride, while the vesicles transport specific molecules within the cytoplasm.

MITOCHONDIRA

GENERATE ENERGY FOR THE CELL
The energy generator supplies the ride with energy while mitochondria supplies the cell with energy.

VACUOLE

TEMPORARILY STORE MATERIALS.
Paper towel dispensers temporarily store the towels until they are needed like the vacuole stores materials for when they are ready to be used.

LYSOSOMES

RECYCLED FOREIGN MATERIALS OR WORN OUT PARTS
The recycling bin recycles old bottles, cans, etc. just as lysosomes digest and recycle foreign materials.

CENTRIOLES

DIVIDE DNA DURING CELL DIVISION
The security check in the entrance of the amusement park divide people with and without tickets from getting into the actual park, while centrioles divide DNA during cell division.

CELL WALL

GIVES PROTECTION, SUPPORT, AND SHAPE TO A CELL.
The amusement park gives shape to the park, while the cell walls give shape to the actual cell.

CHLOROPLASTS

CONVERT SOLAR ENERGY INTO CHEMICAL ENERGY
