The document describes the main parts of an animal cell and compares each part to something familiar. It explains that the nucleus holds DNA and is like a library that holds information. The nuclear membrane allows some things in and out like an entrance sign. Ribosomes make proteins like a factory makes food. The Golgi body packages proteins like FedEx packages deliveries. The endoplasmic reticulum transports proteins made by ribosomes like taxis transport people. Mitochondria provide energy for the cell like electricity provides energy for homes. Lysosomes break down unneeded parts like garbage disposals and cleaning products break down trash. The cell membrane controls what enters and exits like a security guard controls access. The cell wall protects the cell like an outer

6. Endoplasmic Reticulum
(E.R.)
