Explore the similarities between organelles and body systems in terms of structure, function, and overall importance in cellular and organismal health. Discover how the cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, and mitochondria correlate with the skeletal system, integumentary system, circulatory system, and central nervous system. Gain insights into the protective roles, support functions, and energy processes these components perform, leading to a deeper comprehension of cellular and systemic operations.
E N D
Cell Wall • A stiff wall surrounding the cell membrane of a plant cell needed for protection • Responsible for the shape/support of the cell Body System? Skeletal Protects organs and gives organism its shape/support
Cell Membrane • A protective barrier between the cytoplasm and outside of the cell • Controls what enters and leaves the cell Body Systems? Integumentary System (Skin) Protects against invaders and also controls what enters and leaves an organism’s system.
Cytoplasm • Gel-like fluid in which organelles are supported • Transportsmaterials within the cell Body Systems? Circulatory transports materials around the body
Nucleus • The control center of the cell and directs all cell activities Body Systems? Brain and Central Nervous System Controls most body functions
Mitochondria • Mitochondria breaks down nutrients to release energy using oxygen (cellular respiration) Body Systems? Digestive Breaks down food into molecules used by an organism for energy release
