In eukaryotes, it encloses a complex group of organelles that carry out special jobs. Make an analogy to describe the cell membrane and the variety of organelles and processes that take place inside it. Explain any limitations of your analogy.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.4px;">If you're uncertain what an analogy is, <a href="http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/analogy">look up the definition first</a>.</span></p>
