CELL CITY

1. CELL CITY 7th Grade Science Used with permission: Mr. Conner

2. Objective: Students will understand how parts of a living cell relate to parts of a working city.

3. Delivery Van Warehouse Power Plant Food Processing Plant City Planning Office Road System City Hall City Auditor City Limits Construction Company Test your knowledge

4. Endoplasmic Reticulum Cytoplasm Nucleolus Mitochondria * * * * Lysosome Nucleus Endoplasmic Reticulum Ribosomes Vacuole Cell Membrane Chromosomes Test your knowledge Return to City

5. A thin flexible covering that surrounds the cell Controls what goes in and out of the cell Controls what goes in and out of a city City Limits Cell Membrane Return to City Return to cell

6. Allows for movement throughout the city A network of tube-like passageways through which proteins from the ribosomes are transported Road System Endoplasmic Reticulum Return to City Return to cell

7. Controls all the activities of the city A large, round/oval structure near the center of the cell that controls all of the activities in the cell City HallNucleus Return to City Return to cell

8. Stores all the records of the city and passes them on as the city grows Rod-shaped bodies found in the nucleus that pass on hereditary traits City Auditor Chromosomes Return to City Return to cell

9. Place in city hall where plans are made for the construction of the city City Planning Ribosomes • Grain-like bodies made of RNA in the nucleolus where proteins are produced Return to City Return to cell

10. Processes large quantities of food entering the city into smaller packages that can be used more easily Small, round structures in the cytoplasm Contain digestive enzymes to break down large food into sugars Food Processing Lysosomes Plant Return to City Return to cell

11. Warehouse Vacuole • A large round sac in the cytoplasm • Stores water, food, wastes • Stores materials needed by the city Return to City Return to cell

12. Builds structures for the city Small dense object found in the middle of the nucleus Makes RNA for the cell Construction NucleolusCompany Return to cell Return to city

13. Delivers products made at the construction company to other locations in the city Jelly-like; Helps organelles move throughout the cell Delivery Van Cytoplasm Return to city Return to cell

14. Produces energy for the city Tiny bean shaped structure in cytoplasm Highly folded inner membrane Supplies energy for the cell by transforming sugar into energy Power Plant Mitochondria Return to cell Return to city

15. Test Your Knowledge • Match the cell part to its function to test your knowledge Return to city Return to cell

16. Tube-like passageways through which proteins are transported Cell Membrane Controls what goes in and out of the cell Controls all of the activities in the cell
