Plant Cell Analogy-House

By Abhi Lingareddy

Biology 7th Period

Solar Panel- Chloroplast

The Solar Panel acts as a chloroplast in the way that the solar panel converts sunlight into energy, which is similar to the chloroplast's function of converting solar energy into food

Bathroom- Lysosome

A lysosome's function is to remove waste from the cell. A bathroom is similar to this because it removes waste from the humans in the house.

Entire Kitchen- Rough ER

The Rough ER packages the protein made from all the Ribosomes/stoves and encases them in a vesicles/meals much like a kitchen which cooks meals

Refrigerator-Vacuole

Pantry - Golgi Apparatus

The golgi apparatus is basically the packaging plant that stores and sends of packed proteins.

This is similar to the function of a pantry which holds packed food.

The vacuole stores food, water and excess nutrients for the cell, much like how the refrigerator stores all of the food and drinks of the household.

Oven- Ribosomes

Ribosomes produce protein for the cell, much like how an oven cooks food for meals

The End

Living Room-Nucleus

Nucleolus- Couch

The nucleolus of the cell can be compared to the couch in the living room. Since the nucleolus is the center of the nucleus. The nucleolus also makes ribosomes. The couch is also like the center of the living room, where all of the actions in the living room and house center around.

The living room is the main part of the house where all of the inhabitants of the house gather and acts as a control center, much like the nucleus' function as the control center and its holding of DNA. The windows are the nuclear pores

Nuclear Membrane- Door/Walls of Living Room

The nuclear membrane is like the door/walls of the living room. The nuclear membrane controls what goes in and out of the nucleus as well as protecting the nucleus from harm. This is similar to the door/wall because they control what goes in and out of the living room.

Chromatin - Parents

The chromatin is like the parents. chromatin decides what the cell specializes in and contains DNA. This is similar to how your parents decide everything that goes on in the house

Fence-Cell Wall

The fence not only surrounds the house, but also protects from intruders. This is similar to the cell wall in that way also. It is also similar to the plasmodesmata since the fence allows communication with neighbors in other houses without having to go into the house or compromising structure

Stairs- Smooth ER

People use stairs to get from different levels of the house, much like how the smooth ER is in charge of transportation of ribosomes

Door-Cell Membrane

The door protects the inhabitants of the house from outside dangers, such as animals and intruders. This is reminiscent of the cell membrane's function of what goes inside and outside of the cell

Walls-Cytoskeleton

Walls maintain the structure of the house and also protects the house. This is similar to how the cytoskeleton helps maintain structure of the cell.

Generator- Mitochondria

The generator produces electricity for the house. This like the mitochondria, which converts ATP into usable energy for the cell
