"A
cell is a ____________" This will be your main metaphor in a slideshow
that you will write. For each cell part
or organelle, you will pick another metaphor that fits within the main metaphor
and you will explain why you have chosen it. For example, If
a Cell is a City (that is the main metaphor) then the Nucleus is City Hall
because it controls everything that happens in the City.
You
may also use comparisons like a cell is like a factory, or a cell is like an
office building, or a cell is like a school.
Regardless
of what analogy you use, you need to pick one and come up with a theme, using
all 7 different cell parts or organelles.
Cell
membrane - outside
Cell
Wall – strength and structure
Cytoplasm
– what takes up the most space
Nucleus
– the brain
Chloroplast
– the fuel
Mitochondria
– the engine
Vacuoles
– storage
(Bonus
for using more than these!) If you
search the internet for cell parts or organelles, you can find several more
that are taught in higher level sciences.
