Question

whats my job? assign an organelle to each job. use the word bank provided. word bank cell membrane cell wall centrioles chloroplast cytoplasm cytoskeleton golgi apparatus endoplasmic reticulum lysosome mitochondria nucleus ribosome vacuole vesicle organelle job description 10. cafeteria - provides food to feed the workers 11. entrance security - checks who enters & exits the building 12. machines - manufactures goods that will be sold 13. holding area - storage room holds goods coming into & leaving company 14. ceo - in charge of all aspects of company 15. elevators & hallways - where people & goods travel 16. floor of the building - where all the action takes place 17. secretary - organizes paperwork to expand company w/ more franchises 18. steel frame & inside walls of building - gives building its shape 19. packages - of goods that are ready to be sold 20. power generator - provides electricity to run machines 21. outside walls of building - protects goods from being stolen 22. shredder - breaks down large pieces of trash from creating goods 23. post office - packs & prepares goods to be sold

Explanation:

1. Chloroplasts perform photosynthesis to produce food - like a cafeteria providing food, so chloroplast.
2. Cell membrane controls what enters and exits the cell - like entrance security, so cell membrane.
3. Ribosomes synthesize proteins (goods) - like machines manufacturing goods, so ribosome.
4. Vesicles can transport and store substances - like a holding area, so vesicle.
5. Nucleus controls cell activities - like a CEO in charge of a company, so nucleus.
6. Endoplasmic reticulum is a transport network - like elevators and hallways, so endoplasmic reticulum.
7. Cytoplasm is where most cell activities occur - like the floor of a building, so cytoplasm.
8. Golgi apparatus modifies and packages proteins for export - like a secretary organizing for expansion, so Golgi apparatus.
9. Cytoskeleton provides structural support - like a steel - frame and inside walls, so cytoskeleton.
10. Vesicles can package substances for transport - like packages of goods ready to be sold, so vesicle.
11. Mitochondria produce ATP (energy) - like a power generator, so mitochondria.
12. Cell wall provides protection - like outside walls protecting goods, so cell wall.
13. Lysosomes break down waste - like a shredder, so lysosome.
14. Golgi apparatus packages and prepares proteins for secretion - like a post - office, so Golgi apparatus.
