Cytoplasm
City Limits Cell Membrane
• A thin flexible covering that surrounds the cell• Controls what goes in and out of the cell
• Controls what goes in and out of a city
Return to City Return to cell
Road System Endoplasmic Reticulum
• Allows for movement throughout the city
• A network of tube-like passageways through which proteins from the ribosomes are transported
Return to City Return to cell
City Hall Nucleus
•Controls all the activities of the city
•A large, round/oval structure near the center of the cell that controls all of the activities in the cell
Return to City Return to cell
City Auditor Chromosomes
•Stores all the records of the city and passes them on as the city grows
•Rod-shaped bodies found in the nucleus that pass on hereditary traits
Return to City
Return to cell
City Planning Ribosomes
•Place in city hall where plans are made for the construction of the city
•Grain-like bodies made of RNA in the nucleolus where proteins are produced
Return to CityReturn to cell
Food Processing Lysosomes Plant•Processes large quantities of food entering the city into smaller packages that can be used more easily
•Small, round structures in the cytoplasm •Contain digestive enzymes to break down large food into sugars
Return to CityReturn to cell
Warehouse Vacuole
•Stores materials needed by the city
•A large round sac in the cytoplasm•Stores water, food, wastes
Return to CityReturn to cell
Construction NucleolusCompany•Builds structures for the city
•Small dense object found in the middle of the nucleus•Makes RNA for the cell
Return to cityReturn to cell
Delivery VanCytoplasmDelivers products made at the construction company to other locations in the city
Jelly-like;Helps organelles move throughout the cell
Return to city Return to cell
Power Plant MitochondriaProduces energy for the city
•Tiny bean shaped structure in cytoplasm•Highly folded inner membrane•Supplies energy for the cell by transforming sugar into energy
