Cell Parts Analogy on the Human Body

1. Cell Parts Analogy on the Human Body By: Omar Mitchell Teacher: Mrs. Nyland Grade: 9

2. Cell Membrane • The humans skin is similar to a cell’s membrane because the skin lets things in out, such as sweat (which helps the body maintain homeostasis) & oils and water that get into your pours. This cell part is found in plant & animal cells.

3. Cytoplasm • Water is the cytoplasm of the body because like cytoplasm it fills all of the empty spaces of the cell and your body is made up of 70% water which makes up for all the empty spaces in the human body. This cell part is found in plant & animal cells.

4. Nucleus • The head is the nucleus because like the nucleus in a cell it is the room for the control’s, therefore since the brain control’s the body and the brain is in the head, the head is the nucleus. This cell part is found in plant & animal cells.

5. Endoplasmic Reticulum (smooth) • The blood vessel’s are the endoplasmic reticulum (smooth) because like the cell it transport things like a highway and the blood vessel’s transport blood. This cell part is found in plant & animal cells.

6. Ribosome's • A human body’s cells are similar to ribosome's because ribosome’s make protein and are cells make other cells. This cell part is found in plant & animal cells.

7. Nucleolus • The brain is similar to the nucleolus because like the nucleolus the brain controls the body like the nucleolus controls the cell. This cell part is found in plant & animal cells.

8. Mitochondria • Like mitochondria the human body gets it energy from glucose & oxygen when it passes through a cell the mitochondria help it to make energy. This cell part is found in plant & animal cells.

9. Golgi Apparatus • The blood is like the Golgi body because it ships things everywhere around the body. This cell part is found in plant & animal cells.

10. Vacuole • The stomach is like the vacuole because it stores food water and waste. This cell part can be found in plant & animal cells.
