What would be the mitochondria and ribosomes in an ice cream shop?

This sounds more like a philosophical question.





Mitochondria produce energy for the cell, so I'd have to say the electric company or the generator.





Ribosomes translate an mRNA message into a protein, so I'd say the workers would be ribosomes. The workers translate the customer's order into an actual product, the ice cream.





However, I admit that this whole question and answer are a stretch. Any more information?What would be the mitochondria and ribosomes in an ice cream shop?
What kind of question is this? Well since the mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell and create energy in the form of ATP, then I would have to say the ice cream manufacturer or the ice cream shop worker would be the mitochondria creating the energy source-the ice cream. The ribosomes consume waste, so I suspect the customers devouring the ice cream would be the ribosomes. Or even the employee taking out the trash.What would be the mitochondria and ribosomes in an ice cream shop?
Your question as it is makes no sense. The mitochondria produce most of the cell's energy and the ribosomes produce its proteins so can they be connected with objects or activities in an icecream shop? It has display freezers, a counter, chairs and tables, air conditioning and little else.
could the mitochondria be the ingredients that go into the ice cream and the ribosomes could be the people that scoop the ice cream for the customers????
