Analogy of an Animal Cell

I am comparing the animal cell with a restaurant's kitchen. Nucleus: The chef in charge of the whole kitchen, just like the nucleus that gives commands to the other chefs. Nucleolus: A cookbook with the different recipes that are like DNA for the chef, or nucleus, to refer to. Ribosomes: Food created. It is a source of protein that is created by the cell, or kitchen. Rough endoplasmic reticulum: Pots, pans and utensils. They synthesise the production of ribosomes. Golgi apparatus: Ziplock bags which package and segregate the proteins. Lysosomes: Garbage disposal which cleans out waste from the kitchen. Plasma membrane: The walls and doors that let the information and proteins go in and out. Mitochondria: Stove, the main energy source in the kitchen. Taken from: eport2.cgc.maricopa.edu/published/h/lo/hlofgreen59/collection/2/2/upload.doc
