It breaks down glucose into other energy molecules used to fuel other processes within the cell. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928015057 2020-11-16 16:43:13 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928015057 The mitochondria is the power house of the cell. It gives the cell the energy that it needs. April Kepner is like the mitochondria because she is always energetic and brings a happy, positive vibe to everyone in the hospital. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928032351 2020-11-16 16:46:09 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928032351 The nucleus core of the cell. It holds tons of information regarding hereditary material and DNA. It coordinates a cells activities such as reproduction and growth. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928053544 2020-11-16 16:49:42 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928053544 The nucleus hold lots of important information and runs crucial activities in order for the cell to grow and reproduce. Lexie Grey, aka "little grey" is similar to the nucleus because she has a photographic memory. Her mind stores everything she has ever seen and it comes in handy to help her grow as a doctor. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928066507 2020-11-16 16:52:01 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928066507 The cell membrane provides protection for the cell. It keeps toxic substances out through its structure around the cell. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928089406 2020-11-16 16:56:13 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928089406 The cell membrane is protective of the cell and keeps harmful substances away from it. Alex Karev is like the cell membrane because he is super protective of the people he loves, especially Meredith. When anyone or anything is hurting Meredith, Alex protects her. He also works in pediatric care and is very protective and caring towards his patients and would do anything to help them. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928113346 2020-11-16 17:00:38 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928113346 The cytoplasm protects the genetic material and other organelles from damage by movement and collision with other cells. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928145003 2020-11-16 17:06:15 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928145003 The cytoplasm protects genetic material and other organelles from damage by collision. George O'malley is like the cytoplasm because he died saving a woman from being hit by a bus. He saw it as his duty to save the woman from damage, just like it is the cytoplasm's job to save the other material from damage. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928157270 2020-11-16 17:08:21 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928157270 The Golgi Apparatus' job is to package and prepare proteins to travel through vesicles. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928181565 2020-11-16 17:12:24 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928181565 The Golgi Apparatus separates, organizes and prepares proteins and other materials to travel through the vesicles. Bailey is like the Golgi Apparatus because she organizes most things that go on in the hospital and she trains and prepares the main characters as interns to travel through residency. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928193358 2020-11-16 17:14:21 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/928193358 The cytoskeleton helps the cell keep it's shape and structure. It helps the cell to be internally organized. It allows cells to carry out functions such as division and movement graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929142096 2020-11-16 20:21:02 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929142096 The cytoskeleton organizes the cell internally and gives it the ability to move. The cytoskeleton helps a cell keep its shape and structure. Callie Torres is similar to a cytoskeleton because she is a orthopedic surgeon. She fixes patient's bones and organizes and fixes the structure of them. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929152687 2020-11-16 20:23:48 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929152687 Centrioles help in the act of separating chromosomes during cell division. They act as the cell skeletal system. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929169370 2020-11-16 20:28:09 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929169370 The nurses at Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital are like the centriole. This is because they organize everything that happens in the hospital, and are the backbone of it. This is like how the centriole organizes everything that goes on in cell division when it comes to chromosomes and serves as the skeletal system. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929186835 2020-11-16 20:32:45 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929186835 Ribosomes build proteins and provide nutrients to a cell. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929203543 2020-11-16 20:36:43 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929203543 Lysosomes contain the digestion enzymes within cells. They break down excess or worn out cell parts and can even kill off bacteria or viruses. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929214193 2020-11-16 20:39:37 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929214193 The endoplasmic reticulum plays a big role in synthesis, handling proteins. It is a membrane system that forms a series of flattened sacs within the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. There are smooth ERs and rough ERs. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929225864 2020-11-16 20:42:45 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929225864 Mark Sloan is like an endoplasmic reticulum. This is because he has a soft side and a tough side. Just how the ER can be rough or smooth. Mark is kind of rude and cocky at first, but would do anything to help anyone at the end of the day. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929243296 2020-11-16 20:47:31 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929243296 The vacuole is in all animal cells and are typically small. In plant cells, the vacuole's purpose is to store liquids such as water and waste products. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929252320 2020-11-16 20:50:02 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/929252320 The hospital security is like the lysosome because they fight off any trespassers or harmful people trying to enter the hospital. The Lysosome is similar because it fights off and virus or bacteria trying to enter the cell. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/937246815 2020-11-18 15:41:59 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/937246815 The vacuole is kind of like a vacuum because of all the liquid and waste in consumes and stores. Richard Webber is like the vacuole because he has been in the hospital the longest. He stores so much information about it and so many peoples secrets, information and friendships. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/937301781 2020-11-18 15:51:42 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/937301781 Izzie Stevens is like the ribosome. Throughout her time at the hospital, she is known for cooking and baking for everyone. She provides food and snacks to the staff, just like the ribosome provides nutrients for the cell. graciegiesting https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/937318292 2020-11-18 15:54:38 UTC https://padlet.com/graciegiesting/lha67vrbef1wjv64/wish/937318292
