Both. Both cells are plant cells and plant cells have chloroplasts. (Elodea is the waterweeds)

Onion cells and elodea cells structure differences?
An ELODEA cell is a PLANT cell. A HUMAN EPIDERMAIL cell is an ANIMAL cell. if you know that plant cells and animal cells have different organelles, then you should be good to go.
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.
What are the differences and similarities between onion and elodea cells?
similarities: cell wall present, cytoplasm, both eukaryote. difrences: elodea cell smaller vacuoles chloroplasts present unicellular onion cell: large vacuoles multicellular
What is the green structure on the elodea cell?
chloroplasts
Where are the chloroplasts located within the elodea cell?
up my asss
What is in the Elodea cell but not in the onion bulb cell?
chlolrplasts
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.
Are chloroplasts present in elodea oblong cells?
yes because the elodea is a plant cell
What important cellular process is performed by elodea cells but not by onion skin cells?
Elodea and onion plants are both multicellular eukaryotes, having cell walls composed primarily of cellulose enclosing a variety of membrane-bound structures called organelles. The cells each have a nucleus that carries genetic material; a vacuole; mitochondria; ribosomes; rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum; and chloroplasts that capture energy from sunlight.
Do onions have choroplasts do elodea plants carry out photosynthesis?
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.
Does a onion cell have a chloroplasts?
yes
What is the long disk-like green structures within a elodea cell?
The disk-like green structures within an Elodea cell are the chloroplasts.
