What Body System Is Similar To The Cell Membrane?

by | Last updated on January 24, 2024

, , , ,


The integumentary system

is similar to a cell membrane in that both structures create a protective barrier against the outside world.

What body system is similar to the cytoplasm?

Human body equivalent is

the brain

. Cytoplasm is the jelly like substance that helps hold the organelles in place. Cytoplasm is found in both plants and animal cells. The human body equivalent in my opinion is the brain fluid.

What body system is like a cell wall?

The cell wall can be represented as the

bones

in our body. This is because the bones provide extra support for the cell just like the cell wall does to its plant cell. The cytoplasm can be represented as the muscles in our body.

How are the mitochondria and the digestive system similar?

What organ system is mitochondria similar to? The mitochondria is similar to

the digestive system They both break down nutrients to produce energy

Page 2 What organ system is similar to lysosomes and vacuoles? Compare lysosomes and vacuoles to the excretory system.

What are the examples of organ system?

The 11 organ systems include the

integumentary system

, skeletal system, muscular system, lymphatic system, respiratory system, digestive system, nervous system, endocrine system, cardiovascular system, urinary system, and reproductive systems.

What is the analogy of a cell wall?

The cell wall is like

a bullet proof vest

, because a cell wall protects the cell like a bullet proof vest protects its user. The cytoplasm is like a jello salad because the cytoplasm surrounds and suspends the cell’s organelles like the jello surrounds and suspends the fruit in the jello salad.

What human body part is like the Golgi body?

The Golgi is located right near the nucleus. It’s called a

perinuclear body

, and it’s actually right near the endoplasmic reticulum as well.

What organ in your body is most like the lysosome?


Stomach

. In the cell, lysosomes are mainly involved in the digestion or break down of biomolecules with hydrolytic enzymes. Similarly, the stomach is a muscular organ involved in digesting food by secreting enzymes.

What part of a cell is like a brain?


The nucleus

is called the “brain” of the cell because it holds the information needed to conduct most of the cell’s functions.

What is mitochondria class 9th?

Mitochondria are round “tube-like” organelles that

provide energy to a cell

in the form of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) for performing different chemical activities for the sustainance of life.

What can the mitochondria be compared to in the body?


The intestines

are also the mitochondria because it produces and or extracts energy from the food to help the body/ cell work. Lastly, the cytoplasm is like the muscles in the body because they hold the organs and organelles in place.

What cells do not contain mitochondria?

The number of mitochondria per cell varies widely—for example, in humans,

erythrocytes (red blood cells)

do not contain any mitochondria, whereas liver cells and muscle cells may contain hundreds or even thousands. The only eukaryotic organism known to lack mitochondria is the oxymonad Monocercomonoides species.

What is the hardest body system to learn?

Outside of the nervous system,

the muscular system

(13.1%) was reported most often as the most difficult organ system to learn.

What are the 7 main body systems?

They are

Integumentary System, Skeletal System, Muscular System, Nervous System, Endocrine System, Cardiovascular System, Lymphatic System

, Respiratory System, Digestive System, Urinary System, and Reproductive System (Female and Male).

What is the most important organ system in body?

While your heart is a vital organ, the brain (and

the nervous system

that attaches to the brain) make up the most critical organ system in the human body. The human nervous system is responsible for coordinating every movement and action your body makes.

What would a cell wall be compared to?

If a plant cell is like a water balloon, the cell wall is like a

cardboard box

that protects the balloon. … While many sugars, such as glucose, can dissolve in water (H

2

0), cellulose will not dissolve in water and can form long chains to support plants.
