onion cells are rectangular in shape. They are gray under a microscope unless they are dyed with iodine.
Onion cells have cell walls because they are part of the kingdom plantae and they need the cell wall for support and structure.
They have no chloroplasts because onion grows underground and gets no sunlight for photosynthesis, the plant doesn't waste its chloroplasts on its onions

∙ 8y agoA onion diagram is quite similar to a normal plant cell except it doesn't have any chloroplasts as it grows under soil, so it has no light. Also the vacuole is quite large and pushes all the cttoplasmic contents to the side. Sorry i know a diagram would be easier but i didn't have one. Hope that helps though
