The document summarizes the key organelles found in animal cells and provides analogies comparing each organelle to something found in a hotel. It states that the cell membrane regulates what enters and leaves the cell, like a doorman. It notes that the nucleus controls the cell's activities, similar to a hotel manager. It also explains that the nuclear envelope and nuclear pores allow materials to pass in and out of the nucleus, analogous to the front desk and guests at a hotel.

2. •
Cell membrane- regulates what enters or leaves the cell
•
Nucleus- runs cells activity and controls it
•
Cytoplasm- contains various of cell structures and is the site of most cell activity
•
E.R.- serves as a pass way through the cytoplasm as a support structure for the attachment of other
organelles and as a workstation for the ribosomes.
•
-rough E.R.- has ribosomes attached to it
•
-smooth E.R.- acts as a storage organelle
•
Golgi Apparatus- products are transferred to the Golgi apparatus
•
Lysosomes-small round structures that break down large food particles into smaller ones.
•
Vacuole- the storage area of the cell
•
Ribosomes- produce proteins
•
Mitochondrion- produce the energy the cell needs to carrie out its functions
•
Nuclear pore- large protein complexes that cross the nuclear envelope which is the double membrane
surrounding the eukaryotic cell nucleus
•
Nuclear envelope- allows materials to pass in and out of the nucleus

3. Cell membrane
The cell membrane is like the
doorman at a hotel because he lets
people in and out of the building.

4. Nuclear
envelope
The nuclear envelope Is like the
people at the front desk because
they help you and if you need the
manager they will let you talk to him.

5. Nucleus
The nucleus is like the manager
because he is in charge and controls
the activities in the hotel.

6. Nuclear pore
The nuclear pore is like the guests
because they cross the front desk
(nuclear envelope)

7. Cytoplasm
The cytoplasm is like the elevator
because it let's people travel around
the hotel.

8. E.R.
The rough ER is like the lobby
because that's where people are (like
the ribosomes are on the rough ER)
The smooth ER is like the empty
hallways because it is like a pathway
(empty because there are no
ribosomes)

9. Lysosome
The lysosome is like the
housekeeping at the hotel because
they clean like the lysosome.

10. Ribosome
The Ribosome is like the kitchen staff
because they make the food like the
ribosome makes proteins (there is
protein in food)

11. Golgi apparatus
The Golgi apparatus is like room
service because they transfer the
food to the room like the GA
transfers products

12. Vacuole
The vacuole is like the storage closet
because the vacuole stores things.

13. Mitochondrion
The mitochondrion is like the fitness
center/gym because that's where
people have a lot of energy.
