PRESENTATION OUTLINE

The organelles of a Plant Cell

And how they are like my house...

The cell wall is like the house siding.

The cell wall is a stiff and rigid membrane that supports and protects the cell.

The cell membrane is like my door

The cell membrane controls and regulates what goes in and out of the cell.

The nucleus is like my parents and I

The nucleus acts as the central storage area for genomic DNA. ( the brain )

No offense to my brothers but they are nothing like the nucleus.

The cytoplasm is like the air in the room

The cytoplasm is a gel like substance that holds the organelles in place

containing enzymes that can break down all four types of macromolecules.

The Endoplasmic Reticulum is like the hallways

It transports proteins and other materials made by Ribosomes

The Golgi body is like a mailbox

It packages and modifies the secretion of proteins made in the cell

Chloroplast is like any plants in the house contain chlorophyll, a green colored

The vacuole is like my well

It is a large fluid filled space inside the plant cell. Animal vacuoles are much smaller.
