cell analogy
concert thingy
mitochondria The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell like the artist is the powerhouse of the arena. The keep things alive, and they set the mood completely | The Cell Wall When I think of the cell wall I think of the actual arena. The cell wall helps the cell keep its structure, and it helps keep certain things out of it. The arena is closed off and noting that shouldn't be in there is in there | Peroxisomes The peroxisomes protect the cell from its own toxic hydrogen peroxide. It protects the cell from what its naturally produces. This is like security guards at a concert. They keep everything in order. They have already acknowledged what could happen, so they make sure nothing that's in the arena goes out of control. |

They have already acknowledged what could happen, so they make sure nothing that's in the arena goes out of control.
Chloroplast The chloroplast is responsible for giving the cell its color. It absorbs energy from sunlight. The energy in the chloroplast is used to turn water into sugars. These are like the people after the concert that try to sell the items that they already bought. They get something that would mean noting to them and turn it into a way to make money. | Cytosol The cytosol in the cell is full of proteins that controls the cell's metabolism including signal transduction pathways and other things. This is like the traffic directors all around the arena. They control the roads and the people on it, and they make pathways for other people to get where they want to go more smoothly | Cell Membrane The cell membrane acts as a protective barrier to the uncontrolled flow of water. The membrane is made more complex by the presence of numerous proteins that are crucial to the cell activity. This is like the gates around the concert. It's not as thick as the actual wall, but it's like an extra layer. It's the protective barrier to the uncontrolled people. |
