Summary
Which parts of a cell serve a similar job to the parts of a cruise ship, human body, computer, or other system?
- First, students think of another example of a system and note several of its components.
- Next, they look for parts of their system that have similar jobs to parts of a cell. They note parts of a cell that have no counterpart in their system.
- Finally, they'll write a conversation between a cell and their second system in which the two systems discuss their related components.

Teachers love Byrdseed.TV!
"I just subscribed to Byrdseed.TV and am loving it -- though it is kind of scary addictive in a binge-watching kind of way (that, by the way, is a compliment)." ~ Elizabeth from Florida
"I absolutely LOVE all of the ideas on your site. I am using Byrdseed TV to differentiate activities for my clustered students to work on when the rest of the class is doing something they've already mastered." ~ Wendy in Washington
"This was the best money I have ever spent on a teaching tool!" ~ Christine in Wisconsin
