The bulb of the onion does not but the leaves of the onion plant do.
Onions are underground structures. They do not get sunlight.
Onion cells do not contain chloroplasts because onions are not photosynthetic organisms. Chloroplasts are only found in plant cells that require photosynthesis to produce energy for the cell. Onions obtain their energy through other metabolic processes and do not need chloroplasts for this purpose.
Onions do not contain chloroplasts because they do not perform photosynthesis. Instead, onions rely on obtaining nutrients from the soil to grow and sustain themselves. chloroplasts are found in plant cells that undergo photosynthesis to produce energy for the plant.
No, you cannot observe chloroplasts in onion cells because onion cells do not contain chloroplasts. Onions belong to a group of plants known as monocots, which typically lack chloroplasts in their cells. Chloroplasts are mostly found in the cells of green plants that undergo photosynthesis.
I think that it is chloroplasts because chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and need light to work and since onions are grown underground they do not need light to grow. I am not 100% sure but I think that it makes sense.
Onions and humans are commonly used as sources of cells for study and research because they are readily available, have easily observable cells, and can be easily manipulated in laboratory settings. Additionally, their cells have distinct characteristics that make them useful for different types of experiments and investigations.
i think it's because onions grow underground so chloroplasts are not needed to absorb sunlight.
Just did this lab in Biology. Onion cells do not have chloroplasts; therefore, they do not possess the green pigment, chlorophyll, that chloroplasts produce. Elodea plants do carry out photosynthesis.
You can't see chloroplasts in an onion skin cell since the onion was underground. When the onion is underground, the sun can't reach the onion so the onion skin cells can't make glucose. The onion does have chloroplasts in its cells at the top of the onion. That's where he sunlight can reach the onion.
No
okay, animal cells don't have chloroplasts!! only plant cells do!! chloroplasts give the plant its green color!!
Chloroplasts are found in plant cells.
