Heres what I have.

 

Cell wall: Case

Cell membrane: Fan fliters

Nucleus: CPU

Neuclear Membrane: IHS

Cytoplasm: Motherboard

Endoplasmic Reticulum: Cooler?

Ribosomes:GPU

Cloroplast: ???

Golgi Bodies: Fans

Mitocondria: PSU

Vacuole: Hard Drive

Nucleolus: RAM?

Chromosone: Operating System?

Only need those BTW ^^^^^

AND an explaination would be nice too

 

This is for school btw

Mitochondria - Power supply?

Mitochondria/Chloroplasts - PSU Edit: (ninjaed)
Smooth ER - Antivirus/Malware/Spyware
Rough ER - CPU
Nucleus - Storage
Ribosomes - CPU Transistors
Golgi Complex - Ethernet Port
Vacuole - Battery Backup
Cytoplasm - Copper in the Motherboard or the Motherboard itself
DNA - Storage (Goes in the Nucleus, so this would be the Metal Platters on the HDD)
RNA - RAM

The actual work in protein synthesis is done by the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER). The Nucleus is just what stores the DNA/RNA (IIRC).

Mitochondria = PSU

PSU - Mitochondria Edit: (ninjaed)

Will be back with more (possibly)

 

 

You could put DNA as storage, Vesicles as Mobo, and the Mitochondria as PSU 

 
Ninjas.

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 @ Stock, CPU cooler: Dark Rock 4, Motherboard: MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX, RAM: 2x8GB Crucial Ballistix DDR4 @ 3000Mhz, GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 ACX 3.0, SSD: Crucial P1 1TB M.2 + 2x120GB SSDs, Case: Corsair 110R, PSU: Corsair TX650M, OS: Windows 10 64-bit.

RNA is essentially a copy of the DNA that is sent to the little ball things (I forgot so much biology xD) and then is used to form proteins so they can enter the cell's semi-permiable membrane, so something self replicating?

what about those 3 protective layers who form the membrane of the cell?

AMD Athlon X4 750k; Gigabyte F2A88XM-DS2; 8Gb Corsair XMS 1600 Mhz; AMD Hd5670 1Gb DDR3; Bequiet E6-600W; W7 Ultimate x64

I think RNA as RAM is as close as we can get LOL.

I forgot all the biology I learned as well though.

Yep, sounds like RAM. A temporary moving copy of data that is currently being worked on or possibly replicated.

Well don't need RNA so :P

Mythocondria - PSU - generates energy

Nucleus - CPU - controlls the activity of the cell

Cytosol - Motherboard - it's the liquid that connects everything

DNA - HDD - it stores the cell's information
mRNA - RAM - it's a volatile storage

Ribosome - GPU - Synthesises the proteins

tRNA - VRAM - it's the volatile storage used by the Ribosome

Skeleton/Membrane - Case - It holds everything in place

any idea for cloroplast

Probably some kind of solar panel for a solar powered PC.

 

EDIT: Vacuoles should be the fans. It maintains pressure and exports unwanted substances from the cell, which is exactly what the fans do.

 

EDIT2: And the golgi body should be the Control Unit of the CPU.

Microtubules -> Mechanical HDD arm

 

Constantly cahnging and reconstructing

 

Sorry for the completely unimportant information, I just thought I'd like to include it even though you don't need to know it :P

 

Also if you wanted a simplistic diagram of a cell:

Is it bad that I have never heard of micro tubes

I think that part is usually covered in a later course. It isn't one of the major ones that are covered early on.
