Well because the elodea leaf is a plant cell the flexibility can be factored down to the support cell skeleton which is mad up of microtubles which have enough resistance and spring in them enabling them to allow the cell to hold their shape but allowing it to bend.
another factor can be of the medium in which the organelles reside in which is the cytoplasm (a starch fluid that transports things around with cytoplasmic streaming such as proteins the endoplasmic reticulum also helps in the moving of things through out the cell)
What else can I help you with?
Why does osmosis cause elodea leaf cells to shrink?
Due to plasmolysis
Which are smaller onion cells or elodea?
Elodea cells are smaller
Is elodea cells organisms?
Is Elodea cell an organism?
What causes the elodea leaf cells to be flexible?
Elodea have a more rigid shape. Elodea cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and are square shaped. Animal Cells are round, don't have cell walls just a membrane, and because they are heterotrophic they don't have chloroplasts.
Do Elodea cell have cytoplasm?
yes elodea cells do. They use it to move.
What cell has chloroplasts onion cell or elodea cell?
Both. Both cells are plant cells and plant cells have chloroplasts. (Elodea is the waterweeds)
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.
Does elodea cell have chloroplast?
Yes, elodea cells have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells, including those of the elodea plant. The green color of elodea leaves is due to the presence of chlorophyll in the chloroplasts.
Why do onion and elodea cells have a more definite shape than the human cheek cells?
Elodea and onion cells have more consistent shapes than human epithelial cells because they have cell walls. The human epithelial cells do not have defined cell walls.
What structure the cheeks cells and the Elodea cells have in common?
Both cells
Is elodea made up of one cell or many cells?
Elodea is a multicellular organism.
Do elodea cells have chloroplasts?
yes
