Onion cells, like most plant cells, have rigid cell walls which give them a regular shape. They are stacked tightly in columns and rows. Cheek cells have and irregularly shaped cell membrane. and are squished together in layers.

What is the outer edge of the plant cell and animal cell?
The cell membrane
The outer edge of the cells cytoplasm?
the outer edge of the cytoplasm is the cell membrane.
Where is the plasma membrane located of the elodea cell?
It is located on the edge of the cell
Why is the nucleus near the edge of the cell?
Ninety percent of a plant is covered by the vacuoles in order to store food. For this reason, the plant cell nucleus is located on their side.
Where are cell membrane found?
on the outer layer of the cell ----------------------------------------- The membrane is found around the edge of a cell - it encases the cell and controls what goes in and out of it. In plants, the membrane is protected by a thick cell wall.
What is the difference between an onion cell and a cheek cell?
Cheek cells are only found in animals, whereas onion cells are found in platns, particularly onion cells. Cheek cells, being animal cells, do not contain a cell wall as onion cells do becasue cell walls are found only in plant cells for structure and rigidness. Onion cells, unlike most plant cells, do not have chlorplasts becasue it does not need sunlight for photosynthesis as other plants do. Being grown underground, it receives nutrients directly from the soil, so chloraplasts are not evident. This is also why onions are never green, since chloroplasts contain chlorpohyll, a pigment which gives plants its green color. Basically, cheek cells are found in animals, and onion cells are found in plants.
What is the outer boundary of a cheek cell called?
The outer edge of a plant cell is called the cell wall

What is the outer edge of an animal cell called?
The outside layer of the animal cell is the cell membrane.
