Outer Space Organelles
There is a lot of activity in a cell! How does a cell work? What parts of a cell work together? This discussion, worth up to 10 bonus points, will be based on the following simulation:
You are a primitive bacterial cell from an alien planet. During your trip in outer space, you meet a trader named Zork. He is selling organelles and cellular structures from Earth. Wow! Your species has always dreamed of evolving into a multicellular organism like those found on Earth! You have 50 gold specs (GS) and want to purchase some of Zork’s supply. What will you purchase? Will you purchase everything you want at once, or will you try out one or two and come back for more later (can be generations later)? You can come back multiple times as well.
Here is Zork’s inventory:
Fimbriae 5 GS
Nucleoid 5 GS
Capsule 5 GS
Flagella/Cilia 5 GS
Nucleus 10 GS
Ribosomes 10 GS
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) 10 GS
Smooth ER 10 GS
Golgi Apparatus 15 GS
Lysosomes 10 GS
Vacuoles 10 GS
Mitochondria 20 GS
Chloroplasts 20 GS
Cytoskeleton 15 GS
Cell Junctions 20 GS
Cell Walls 15 GS
In your post, please explain why you purchased each organelle. Include the following:
How do you think they will help you evolve into a multicellular organism?
What kind of multicellular organism do you think this will help you evolve into? (this will require you to research what organelles are present in different organisms).
Keep in mind the organelles you already have (you are a bacterial cell, remember, though primitive). Would eukaryotic organelles be better for helping you evolve into a multicellular organism? Maybe you just want upgraded bacterial organelles and structures.
If you don’t spend all your GSs, explain why.
