LYSOSOMES

THE WASTE REMOVERS
Lysosomes are like a junkyard because they take "trash", break it down, and recycle it into other things the cell needs.

CYTOSKELETON

THE SUPPORT BEAMS
Like a city, the structures and walls of a cell need supports to give then shape and keep them up.

CELL MEMBRANE

THE OUTER WALL OF AN ANIMAL CELL
The cell membrane is like a city's border because it controls what goes in and out, and it marks the end of the cell/city

CELL WALL

THE PROTECTIVE SHELL OF PLANTS OT BACTERIA
The cell wall is like the walls of a city because they protect the cell/city and give it shape.

RIBOSOMES

PRODUCE PROTEINS
The ribosomes are like lumber yards because they create the resources the ER needs to synthesis proteins.

CHLOROPLASTS

TURN LIGHT FROM THE SUN INTO ENERGY FOR THE PLANT.
Chloroplasts are like solar panels because they turn light energy into usable energy for the city/cell.

CYTOPLASM

FILL THE CELL AND ALLOWS ORGANELLES TO MOVE
Cytoplasm is like streets or roads because they allow the organelles/population to travel around the cell/city.

VESICLES

STORE AND MOVE MATERIALS ACROSS THE CELL
Vesicles are like delivery trucks because both of them are used to deliver materials from one point to another.

CENTRIOLES

HELP WITH TRANSPORT AND CELL DIVISION
Centrioles are like subways because they help with the transportation of materials in the cell.

CENTRAL VACUOLE

HOLDS WATER IN A PLANT CELL
The central vacuole is like a dam because both hold water to stop flooding.

NUCLEOLUS

BEGINS THE ASSEMBLY OF RIBOSOMES
The nucleolus is like the mayors office because it's located in the nucleus, contains the "blueprints", and gives out orders.
