A good way to understand cells at first to see them as a factory.
This factory manufactures proteins. The membrane forms the walls.
There are doors which allow necessary things to come in and go out. The floor of the building contains the cytoplasm.
The nucleus is the main office. This is where plans are drafted and drawn up to make proteins. These instructions are sent to the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER).
This is the factory floor. Each work station is a ribosome. These ribosomes make the proteins.
The mitochondria are the power houses. The Golgi body is the shipping department. It sends out the proteins that the cell made and imports parts that cell needs.
The vacuoles are the trash bins. There are parts which are brought out when needed as in cell division: centrioles and fibers.
power company - produces energy
It acts as a power station or a power plant.
the power house, a generator, the consumption fuel into energy. Like a windmill or a turbine
It would be a power plant. Both of them produce energy
The mitochondria would most closely resemble a power plant for a city as the mitochondria is where the energy for a cell is created.
There are many things in the world that would represent cytoplasm. In the city the cytoplasm could be represented as the ground where everything is built.
The mitochondria is used for energy in the human body. Having more mitochondria would be beneficial since it would mean that the body would have more energy when needed.
If all the mitochondria were removed from a cell it would no longer be able to function. This is because the mitochondria produces the energy for the cell.
its either lysosomes, mitochondria, mRNA, or Golgi bodies

The mitochondria would most closely resemble a power plant for a city as the mitochondria is where the energy for a cell is created.
Power House
If a mitochondria was had a job in the city, it'd be a power generator.
A Garbage Incinerator
It is easier to explain the functions of a cell if I explain the parts of it like they were parts of a city. The mitochondria would be the power plant of a city. It is also the power plant of the cell. The mitochondria coverts food that enters the cell into a form that the cell can use.
