Liver Cells contain more Mitochondria than Cheek Cells because the Liver Cells need more energy, Liver Cells aid in Digestion and extract nutrients, whereas the Cheek protects against Bacteria and keeps the oral cavity moist, also cheek cells die and divide more often than Liver cells.

∙ 11y agoCheek cells and liver cells are similar as they both contain mitochondria. However liver cells contains more mitochondria than cheek cells as the liver cells requires more energy (ATP) to carry out different functions such as breaking down drugs and alcohols etc. Other functions of the liver cell are to aid digestion and extract nutrients for your body. Whereas the cheek cell function is to protect against bacterial invasion, and also secretion to keep the oral cavity moist. Another difference between the cheek and liver cell is that the cheek cells die and divide all the time; however the average time taken for a human liver cell to divide is one year, therefore this illustrates the major difference in cell cycles of the two cell types.

What are the sizes of cheek epithelial cells and elodea leaf cells?
The human epithelial cells are thick and boxlike whereas elodea cells are thin and platelike. The cells of elodea are rigid and rectangular in shape.
What two structures are not present in a human cheek cell but would be present in a cell from the leaf of a French bean plant?
The question boils down to the difference between plant cells and animal cells. Plant cells actually have 3 things: 1.Cell wall 2. Vacuoles 3. Chloroplasts Not sure if by "structures" they mean organelles or what but I think that should help. ^^ Thank-You !! :)
Why do onion cells look so different than human cheek cells?
Onion cells are plant cells, so they have a cell wall and more angular shape (but no chloroplasts, like some plant cells, since they are not part of the photosynthesizing part of the onion plant) Human cheek cells are animal cells, so the biggest difference is that they have no cell wall and thus a rounder shape.
What is the functions of leaf plant cell?
the leaf will store and give food to the plant cell
What is the didfference between a plant root cell and a leaf cell?
three reasons why a root hair cell different is different from a leaf
Does the Nucleus have a cheek cell or leaf cell?
The cheek cell has a nucleus and so does a leaf cell.
How would you identify if a cell is an human cheek cell or a bean leaf cell?
A human cheek cell (animal cell) and a bean leaf cell (plant cell) have a number of differences.Animal cellsHave no cell walls - so they are irregular in shape.Have a small vacuoleDo not have chloroplastsPlant cellsHave cell walls - so they are rectangular, or brick-like, in shapeHave a large vacuoleContain chloroplasts which is where photosynthesis occurs
What are the sizes of cheek epithelial cells and elodea leaf cells?
The human epithelial cells are thick and boxlike whereas elodea cells are thin and platelike. The cells of elodea are rigid and rectangular in shape.
What has a cell wall a nerve cell a leaf cell a cheek cell or a bone cell?
Leaf Cell, only plant cells have cell walls
Is a cell membrane leaf cell or cheek cell?
Just the same as it does on other animal cells-controls what enters and exits the cell.
What are the Characteristics of cheek cells leaf cells and onion cells?
cheek is eukaryotic multicellular and sexual

What does a leaf cell do?
The palisade leaf cell provides chlorophlly to the leaf as a result photosynthesis will take place in the palisade cell.
Why do onion cells look so different than human cheek cells?
Onion cells are plant cells, so they have a cell wall and more angular shape (but no chloroplasts, like some plant cells, since they are not part of the photosynthesizing part of the onion plant) Human cheek cells are animal cells, so the biggest difference is that they have no cell wall and thus a rounder shape.
What does palisade leaf cell do?
The palisade leaf cell provides chlorophlly to the leaf as a result photosynthesis will take place in the palisade cell.
What is found in a leaf cell but not a human liver cell?
Vacoule and cytoplasm
Does a leaf cell have a cell membrane?
Yes, a leaf cell has a cell membrane. In fact any living cell has a cell membrane.
