CELL VS. PRISON

Reece AndonovLizzie Codina

Period 3

NUCLEUS VS PRISON WARDEN Found in both types of eukaryotic cells The nucleus is like the prison warden

because the warden controls all aspects of the prison and the nucleus controls all functions of the cell, also they are both the most important.

CELL MEMBRANE VS WALLS & DOORS OF PRISON Found in both prokaryotic and

eukaryotic cells The membrane is like the doors and

walls because the both keep things in and out and will selectively allow entrance.

VACUOLES VS. PRISON CELL Found only in eukaryotic cells The vacuole is like a prison cell because

the vacuole keeps what it stores inside itself and the prison cells don’t allow the prisoner to escape.

MITOCHONDRIA VS. POWER GENERATOR Found in eukaryotic cells The mitochondria is like a power

generator because it powers necessary life functions of the cell and the power generator because it powers the entire prison.

CYTOSKELETON VS. PILLARS Found in all cells The cytoskeleton is like the pillars

because booth support and help keep the structure of the object, in this case the cell and the prison.

LYSOSOME VS. ELECTRIC CHAIR Found only in animal cells The lysosome is like the electric chair

because it destroys(dissolves) the food from the vacuole and the electric chair gets rid of the prisoner from the cell.

E.R. VS HALLWAYS & LANES Found in Eukaryotic cells The Endoplasmic Reticulum(both

smooth and rough) is like the hallways and lanes of a prison because they both help to transport things from one place (within cell or prison) to another.

CHLOROPLASTS VS. COOKS Found in plant cells The chloroplasts are like the prison

cooks because the both produce food. The chefs give food to energize the prisoners and the chloroplasts give food to energize the cell.

RIBOSOME VS. CONVICT LABOR Found in all cells The ribosome is like convict labor

because the convicts working in the industrial produce and assemble furniture, cars etc and the ribosome produces and assembles proteins.

CELL WALL VS. OUTER FENCE Found only in plant and bacteria cells The cell wall is like the outer fence

because the cell wall give shape and protection to the cell, just as the outer fence does to the prison.

GOLGI VS. TRANSPORT PROCESSION Found in eukaryotic The Golgi is like the transport procession

because the both ship exports-transport items outside of the cell/prison.

CYTOPLASM VS. PRISON Found in all cell types The cytoplasm is like the actual prison

because the purpose of both is to hold things in.

NUCLEOLUS VS. EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES Found only in eukaryotic The nucleolus is like the educational

facilities because the nucleolus has to assemble and organized the RNA just as the educational facilities have to organized the students and help them to learn.

Nucleolus

CENTRIOLE VS. PRISON CHAINS Found in animal cells The centriole is like the prison chains

because the centrioles attach to chromosomes as spindle fibers and pull them apart just like the prison chains are used to help keep some of the prisoners apart.

VESICLE VS. STORAGE Found in eukaryotic cells The vesicles are like the prison storage

because the purpose of both is to store semi important objects.

CENTROSOME VS. GUARDS Found in eukaryotic The centrosome is like the guards

because the guards pull apart the prisoners just like the centrosome pulls apart the chromosomes.

CAPSULE VS. BARBED WIRE Found in prokaryotic The capsule is like the barbed wire

because the wire is like another layer of protection to keep people in and out just like the capsule is to the cell.

CELL THEORY All living organisms are composed of

cells. They may be unicellular or multicellular.

The cell is the basic unit of life.

Cells arise from pre-existing cells.

PROKARYOTIC VS. EUKARYOTIC

Prokaryotic Eukaryotic

Simplistic cells Only organelle is

ribosomes Includes cell wall,

cytoskeleton, ribosomes, cell membrane, capsule, cytoplasm & plasmid

Pro-no No Kary-kernal

Nucleus

Complex cells Many organelles

such as ER, nucleus, golgi, mitochondria, etc.

Eu-True True Kary-kernal

Nucleus

PLANT VS. ANIMAL

Plant Animal

Cell wall Large central

vacuole Chloroplasts

Small vacuoles Centriole Lysosome
