Cell Analogy Analogy to a School

Explore the similarities between a school and a cell, understanding the roles of each part in both systems. From the nucleus acting as the control center like an office to the cell wall providing structure like a school building. Discover how the endoplasmic reticulum functions similarly to school hallways and how the Golgi body acts like a school secretary. Uncover the cell's functions through a school analogy, making learning engaging and relatable.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Cell AnalogyAnalogy to a School Mia Murray & Taylor Haney

  2. Cytoplasm • The cytoplasm circulates materials through the cell • Analogy: Electricity circulates and flows through the building

  3. Nucleus • The nucleus controls all cell activity • Analogy: Office controls what goes on through the entire school

  4. Nucleolus • Inside of the nucleus • Analogy: Principal is inside of the office (nucleus)

  5. Endoplasmic Reticulum • The ER has materials and proteins that travel through it • Analogy: Hallways allow students and staff to travel

  6. Ribosome • The ribosome produces things, energy, and materials • Analogy: Students produce work, projects, homework

  7. Cell Wall • The cell wall provides structure and shape for the cell, prevents from bursting when water enters • Analogy: School building is the general structure prevents things from coming in (bad) and protects the inside

  8. Vacuole • Vacuole stores water and substances for the cell • Analogy: Custodians closet stores materials for the building

  9. Golgi Body • The Golgi body packages, modifies and sorts materials in the cell • Analogy: Secretary does the same thing (sends students out, dismissal..)

  10. Cell Membrane • The Cell Membrane is inside of the cell wall and it allows things in and out • Analogy: Walls inside of the school provide an extra layer and allows people in and out

  11. Cytoskeleton • The Cytoskeleton supports cell • Analogy: Bricks (wall structure) and cement throughout the walls are what keeps the building structure in place as a foundation
