Why the chloroplasts is not present in the onion cell?
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.
Do the cells of the onion bulb possess chloroplasts?
Onions are the root bulbs of onion plants. The plant itself contains chloroplasts, which cause the green colour, whereas the onion bulb itself contains other pigments and few, if any, chloroplasts.
Why are no chloroplasts fond in the onion cells?
Onions are underground structures. They do not get sunlight.
Why do onion cells do not have chloroplast?
Onion cells do not have chloroplasts because the onion is underground where there is no light. Without light chloroplasts have no purpose, so onion cells just don't have them.
Which part of a plant cell will you never find in a onion bulb?
As an onion cell is a cell, no cells are located in it, but maybe you mean organelles, which literally mean "tiny organs" and make up every cell. In that case, onion cells lack chloroplasts because they grow underground and therefore don't use the sun to produce energy (chloroplasts are involved in photosynthesis).
Why do you see chloroplasts in the Elodea cell but not the onion cell?
Because an onion develops in the ground, and chloroplasts develop in the sunlight. Therefore no chloroplasts form. Think of it this way: Tree leaves contain chloroplasts because they contain chlorophyll in order for the leaves to turn colors. But who has ever heard of an onion changing colors because it's fall?! Onions dont needchloroplasts, so they dont have them.
Why don't onion cells contain the function of a chloroplast?
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.
What 2 plant cells don't have chloroplasts?
onion cells dont contain chloroplasts as they are underground so cant photosynthesise
Why would you not find a chloroplast in a onion root cell?
the reason you wouldn't see chloroplasts is because the onion root tip is underground where light can not reach and why would it need chloroplasts if it didn't need to produce energy form light?
Why dont onion cell have chloroplasts and chlorophyll?
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which help to make the food for the plant (glucose). First, chloroplasts are essential for the process of photosynthesis. You need to know that the onion bulb we refer to in daily life grows underground, which is not exposed to the sunlight, it only stores food for the plant. And you also need to know, the process of photosynthesis, requires lights. Because onion bulbs are underground, what is the use of having chloroplasts? The onion plants have green shoots where there are chloroplasts. You can simply tell that there is no chloroplast in onion bulbs because they are not green. Onion bulbs just basically shares a similar environment with root cells.You can check the images in Google and you actually see that onion cell does not have any chloroplasts.
Why do onions have gucose not starch?
because it is technically a Leaf! its chloroplasts are white because it is underground..its roots are under the onion! the onion is NOT a root, so no starch only the monosaccharide glucose from the chloroplasts.
Are chloroplasts visible in onion and cheek cells?
No chloroplasts in cheek and onion cells
