The cell wall is a rigid layer of polysaccharides lying outside the plasma membrane, and is the outer most layer of the cell. Cellulose fibers, structural proteins, and other polysaccharides are what makes up the cell wall and it help it to maintain the shape, form of the cell. It also acts as a gatekeeper, because it determines what can come in and out of the cell in order to keep the cell protected. This is a similar to the  outer-construction of the building because it gives it structure, stability, and protection to everything inside of the airport which may be considered as the organelles.

The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is a double layer of lipids and proteins that surrounds a cell and separates the cytoplasm (the contents of the cell) from its surrounding environment. It is selectively permeable, meaning it only allows certain proteins and ions to enter the cell, blocking harmful substances like bacteria from entering, control the amount of some substances that go into or out of the cell. This can compare to the security check , because they monitor and regulate the passengers entering and leaving the terminal, only allow certain people with tickets to enter, and doesnt allow harmful or suspicious things/activities into the airport. Although sometimes the cell membrane is unable to identify and successfully block bacteria from entering due to the way the bacteria camouflage themselves, similar to the security check where it is possible that the airplane ticket checkers make a mistake, and let the unsafe people in.

(EXTRA SIMILARITY: both the cell membrane and the security guards/ticket checkers are made of lipids, phosphates and proteins!)    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpcACa39YtA]]> 2017-10-29 03:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201455231 joannayuen1 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201455549 Present in both animal and plants cells
The nucleus is a large organelle which stores genetic information and coordinates the cell's activities, and are necessary for the creation of the majority of the proteins needed to keep a cell functional, cell growth, development, and reproduction. The nucleus regulates the synthesis of proteins in the cytoplasm through the use of messenger RNA (mRNA), which is then transcribed into DNA segment that serves as a template for protein production. The nucleus is similar to control tower of the airport because all information about the flights are stored, and it plays a very important role in order for the airport to function well, eg; ( provide information and other support for pilots, directs aircrafts on the ground and in the air to prevent collisions etc.) It controls all the activities present in an airport.

The nucleolus is not surrounded by a membrane but is located inside of the nucleus, and is made up of proteins and ribonucleic acids (RNA). The main function of nucleolus is to send and assemble subunits out to the rest of the cell where they combine into complete ribosomes, which is  an indirect but crucial role in protein synthesis, and plays a vital role in making proteins in the cell. This relates to the computers present in the control tower, because they provide all the information of the flight data to the workers inside, just like how the nucleolus provides genetic information for the nucleus to create DNA.

Ribosomes are a sturcture where RNA are translated to protein, called protein synthesis, which is necessary for the cells to perform cellular functions. Ribosomes float freely in the cytoplasm, and are also bound to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The ribosomes could classify as the restaurants within the airport because it is where the passengers can eat during, before, or while their flight, to gain nutrients, and is what builds them up. Both ribosomes and restaurants produce for the cell and the airport passengers respectively.

The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes found throughout the cell and is connected to the nucleus. It plays a major role in the production, processing, and transport of proteins and lipids. Endoplasmic reticulum has a number of jobs within the cell including folding and transport of various proteins, to the Golgi apparatus. This is comparable to the the plane runways because it is an area prepared for the landing and the takeoff of airplanes. It can be both naturally made or man made. Planes can land and takeoff from the runway with permission from the air traffic controller.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is an extensive organelle composed  sealed sacs, which are contiguous with the nuclear membrane. It is called ‘rough’ endoplasmic reticulum because it is studded on its outer surface with ribosomes (are called membrane bound riobosomes), and are responsible for the assembly of many proteins (called translation), folding, quality checking, and export to other parts of the cell. Some of these proteins end up embedded in cell membranes to assist in metabolism, some become enzymes, and some become support structures. This can compared to the pathaway along the ticket printing areas, which are the ribosomes, and passangers receives their tickets from these "ribosomes" and then they are hustled to their respective flights.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not contain ribosomes, and its main function is to make cellular products like hormones and lipids. It also distributes those products throughout the cell and to places in the organism.
One of the functions of the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (smooth ER) is to transport proteins made by the ribosomes to their proper locations in the cell. This is similar to the travellator, which transports people from one place to another. Also, the smooth ER appears smooth by electron microscopy. This is similar to the travelators which are present to reduce the time and energy required to move towards the gates and to ensure that people have a smooth journey there.

Lysosomes are organelles that contain digestive enzymes. They digest excess or worn out organelles, food particles and engulfed viruses or bacteria. Their main responsibility is intracellular digestion and how it deals with waste. We compared this to the garbage systems at airport how this is because they both deal with garbage in the airport and get rid of the waste. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTnNGIx5-P8]]> 2017-10-29 04:50:50 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457652 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457660 Present in both animal and plant cells
Vesicles and Vacuoles are sacs used for storage inside eukaryotic cells. The function of the vacuole's in vesicles is to store food and water and collect wasted products. We compared this to the food court in the airport this is because at the food court is where the food is kept and other beverages. In addition at the food court is where a large number of garbage cans are and the garbage cans collect the wasted products.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTnNGIx5-P8                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      ]]> 2017-10-29 04:51:01 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457660 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457669 Present in both animal and plant cells
Peroxisome's are responsible for catabolic reaction of breaking down fatty acids.A major function of peroxisomes is the breakdown of very long chain fatty acids through beta-oxidation. This can be compared to the air filters in the airport. This is because they both breakdown something for example in a peroxide on a breakdown fatty acid's but in an airport, the air filter filters out bad substances in the air and keeps the air fresh for the people of the airport. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTnNGIx5-P8]]> 2017-10-29 04:51:13 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457669 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457673 Present in both animal and plant cells
The mitochondria is responsible for cellular respiration and producing energy for the cell. It is a double membrane-bound organelle found in all eukaryotic organisms. The analogy that we created was comparing the mitochondria to the power generator of the airport. Since the mitochondria powers/produces energy for the cell this is like the electrical center in the airport because it provides the power for the whole airport. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTnNGIx5-P8]]> 2017-10-29 04:51:23 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457673 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457679 Present in only plant cells
Chloroplasts are within the cells of plants and green algae that is the site of photosynthesis, the process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy for making all proteins for the cell. Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. The entire process is called photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are similar to solar panel of an airport, where they can accomplish this through photovoltaic cells (PVC). PVCs are the components in solar paneling that convert the sun's energy to electricity. It provides energy to many modern airports, including the YVR. The advantage of using solar power is it is a green option for power. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTnNGIx5-P8]]> 2017-10-29 04:51:34 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457679 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457682 Present in both animal and plant cells
The cytoskeleton is a microscopic network of protein filaments and tubules in the cytoplasm of many living cells, giving them shape and coherence. They are responsible for the shape of the cell and the movement of its parts. We compared this to the frame of the building. This is because since the cytoskeleton helps with the movement of the cell and the shape. This is similar to the framing of the airport building because the framing maintains the shape of the airport. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTv9ItGd050]]> 2017-10-29 04:51:45 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457682 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457688 Present only in an animal cell, but it is found in some plant sperm
The Cilia and flagella are made up of micro-tubules that are covered by an extension of the plasma membrane. They are designed either to move the cell itself, to move substances over or around the cell and for moving liquid past the surface of the cell. This is similar to the wheels on an airport cart because the airport cart moves luggage and other things around the airport. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRKUAG4IC2s]]> 2017-10-29 04:51:59 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457688 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457693 Present in only animal cells
A Centriole is a cylindrical organelle near the nucleus in animal cells, occurring in pairs and involved in the development of spindle fibers in cell division.The centriole helps separate cells during mitosis and also helps with cellular organization. We compared this to the terminals of the airport because it is where passengers are able to get on and off aircraft. Inside the terminal, passengers can buy tickets, leave or pick up their luggage, and be checked by security staff. The terminals organize the passengers, dividing them according to their destinations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fkOo9S2ikk]]> 2017-10-29 04:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201457693 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201521311 Present in both animal and plant cells
The Golgi apparatus also known as the Golgi body is a complex of vesicles and folded membranes within the cytoplasm of the Eukaryotic cells. It is responsible for processing, packaging and distribution of proteins and lipids. The Golgi body is similar to the conveyor belt/luggage sorter in the airport. This is because they both process and distribute something. How the Golgi body distributes proteins and lipids and the conveyor belt/luggage sorter distributes and processes suitcases and other packages. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTnNGIx5-P8]]> 2017-10-29 18:43:20 UTC https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201521311 isz3704 https://padlet.com/joannayuen1/53xs7poocox3/wish/201904431
We believe that we've exceeded the expectations by putting a great amount of effort into analyzing the cell structure/function in depth, and providing a link below each structure to further the visual aspect to our assignment as well as providing audio within the videos which increases your understanding. In addition, each section is colour coded to better construct our display and is also visually appealing.

Microscopic organisms typically consist of a single cell, which is either eukaryotic (have a nucleus and membrane bound organelles) or prokaryotic ( have chloroplasts, a cell wall and a central vacuole). The human body is composed of trillions of cells, providing structure for the body, take in nutrients from food, convert those nutrients into energy, and carry out specialized functions. Cells are made up of many parts, each with a different function. Some of these parts, called organelles, are specialized structures that perform certain tasks within the cell.
