animal cell thing





An animal cell is just like a computer. The plasma membrane is like the shell of the computer to protect the internal parts of the computer.The CUP is like the nucleus of the computer as it controls all the activities of the computer.The nucleolus is like the needles on the cpu(nucleus).The needles are in charge of making all signals needed for the computer to work.The ribosomes are the signals that the nucleolus made. The main board is the lysosome. It "digest" singnals into actual commands for the computer to work. While the lysosome digest excess food into energy by its enzymes.The golgi aparatus is the wires all over the computer.It transfers signals all over the computer.Just like the golgi aparatus tranfering molecules by packing them into vesicles. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is the "signal senders" on the mother board.It helps the mother board to transfer signals around the computer.The power plug is the mitochondria of the animal cell because it provide power for the computer to work.Same with mitochondira which release energy through cellular respirations.
