Function in Cell: A lysosome is a membrane-bound cell organelle that contains digestive enzymes. Lysosomes are involved in a variety of cell processes. They degrade excess or worn-out cell parts. They may be used to eliminate invading viruses and bacteria.
Why Analogy Works: Digests excess or worn-out cell parts, food particles, and invading viruses or bacteria in the same way that a janitor cleans the school and gets rid of waste products.
3. Principal - Nucleus
Function in Cell: The nucleus controls and regulates the cell's activities (for example, growth and metabolism) and carries the genes, which contain hereditary information.
Why Analogy Works: The nucleus is analogous to the principal of a school because it controls the cell in the same way that the principal controls the school.
4. Canteen Manager - Mitochondria
Function in Cell: Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles that produce the majority of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions (mitochondrion, singular).
