  1. Cell Organelles 9/8/09

  2. Lord of the Rings and the Cell In order to help remember the parts of the cell we will try to compare the parts of the cell to the characters in the Lord of the Rings.

  3. Cell Membrane • Can someone explain to me how the Cell Membrane works? And its form?

  4. Cell Membrane = Helm’s Deep • Semi permeable • Phospholipid Bilayer • Polar, hydrophilic head • 2 Non-polar hydrophobic tails • Protects the cell, allows for internal structure

  5. Cell Membrane = Helm’s Deep • Cell membrane protects the inside of the cell • Helm’s Deep protects the people of Rohan • Cell membrane has two layers • Helm’s Deep has two main walls

  6. Nucleolus = The Ring • A mass of RNA, DNA, and Proteins to eventually form ribosomes. • Aids in Cell Division

  7. Nucleolus is the center of the nucleus and the cell. The Ring is focus and center of the Lord of the Ring and the key to Mordors power. Nucleolus aids in Cell Division The Ring divides and separates all good people. Nucleolus = The Ring

  8. Nucleus = Frodo Baggins • Holds the genetic information • Chromosomes • Genes • Center of the cell • The Nucleolus is within.

  9. Nucleus holds genetic information Frodo holds the key to everything (ring) Nucleus is the center of the cell and holds the Nucleolus Frodo is the main character and holds the burden of carrying the ring Nucleus = Frodo Baggins

  10. Nuclear Membrane = The Fellowship • Porous, similar to cell membrane • Separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm • Regulates passage of molecules to the Nucleus

  11. Nuclear Membrane = The Fellowship • Nuclear Membrane protects and regulates passage of molecules to the Nucleus • The Fellowship protects Frodo from evil

  12. Ribomsomes are attached to it, which makes it look rough Moves proteins throughout the cell Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) = Gollum

  13. Rough ER looks “Rough” because ribosomes are attached Gollum looks “Rough” (UGLY) Rough ER moves proteins throughout the Cell Gollum helps transport Frodo and Sam to Mordor Rough ER = Gollum

  14. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum = Samwise Gamgee • Lacks attached Ribosomes • Makes lipids • Breaks down toxic substances

  15. Smooth ER looks smooth due to lack of ribosomes Samwise looks better than Gollum Smooth ER makes lipids Samwise makes Frodo food Smooth ER breaks down toxic substances Samwise tries to kill Gollum and defend Frodo Smooth ER = Samwise Gamgee

  16. Ribosome = Legolas and the Elves • Makes proteins • Assemble and fix things that get broken

  17. Ribosomes make proteins The Elves make arrows Ribosomes fix things in the cell that are broken The Elves try to help fix Man’s mistake of trying to keep the ring. Ribosome = Legolas and the Elves

  18. Centriole = Gimli (Dwarf) • Shape of a short barrel • Assemble proteins to pull Nucleus apart in cell division

  19. Both the Centriole and Gimli have the shape of a short barrel Centriole assembles proteins to pull Nucleus apart during cell division Gimli and the dwarves make axes that split Orcs in half during a battle. Centriole = Gimli (Dwarf)

  20. Mitochondria = Aragorn • Powerhouse of the Cell • Creates Energy for the cell in the form of ATP

  21. Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell and makes energy in the form of ATP Aragorn is the best warrior with the sword and never tires in his fight to protect the ring Mitochondria = Aragorn

  22. Golgi Complex = Rivendell • Packaging and Distribution center of the Cell • Stores products made until used or released • Polishes up product before it is released

  23. Golgi Complex = Rivendell • Golgi Complex is the packaging and distribution center of the cell • Rivendell is the home of Elves • Golgi Complex stores and polishes up products before they are released • Rivendell houses Frodo until his wounds are healed.

  24. Cytoplasm = All the small roles • The insides of the cell • Organelles are found in the cytoplasm • Full of different compounds

  25. Cytoplasm = All the small roles • Cytoplasm is inside the cell and organelles are found there. • All the small roles are the people who are not main characters but play a small role in the Lord of the Rings

  26. Lysosome = Orcs • Destructors • Digest and Breakdown (digestive enzymes) proteins, lipids, carbs., nucleic acids

  27. Lysosome = Orcs • Lysosome digest and breakdown used materials of the cell. • Orcs destroy and destruct anything that stands in their path.

  28. Vacuole = Horses (Shadowfax) • Transport vehicles • Storage of water and other materials for the cell.

  29. Vacuoles are transport vehicles and storage. Shadowfax and the horses transport Gandalf and the humans in battle. Vacuole = Horses (Shadowfax)

  30. Chloroplasts (Plant) = Gandalf • Use light energy to make Carbs. from CO2 and H2O • Carbs. Become food and energy for the plant • Plant appears green

  31. Chloroplasts use light energy to make food for the plant. Gandalf is the energy and the magic of good. He represents the light as Gandalf the White. Chloroplasts (Plant) = Gandalf

  32. Cell Wall (Plants) = Gate of Mordor • Thick wall of Carbs, Proteins, and Cellulose • Support and maintain cells shape • Connects cell with adjacent cells • Doesn’t restrict substances from passing through the cell membrane

  33. Cell Wall (Plants) = Gate of Mordor • The Cell Wall is thick • The Black gate of Mordor is a huge thick wall
