Welcome to Biology!
Our course information guide can be found on the website here!
Analogies are a great way to get you thinking creatively…
“The stomach is like a washing machine. It mixes enzymes with food to digest the
food, just like a washing machine mixes dirty clothes with washing powder to digest

Your task is to create 5 analogies for these parts of the cell or body using everyday (non-

1. Mitochondrion
2. Ribosome
3. Chloroplast
4. Trachea
5. Alveolus
Task 4: essential task – bringing it all together

Reference any sources that you use for each criteria: here is a good reference generator:
