They both have nucleoli you have to dye them both and of course they are both living cells but not the same kind. Both have cell membranes and are eukaryotic cells.

Why are onion cells different to cheek cell?
because they are
How does the edge of the cheek cell compare with the edge of the onion cell?
Onion cells, like most plant cells, have rigid cell walls which give them a regular shape. They are stacked tightly in columns and rows. Cheek cells have and irregularly shaped cell membrane. and are squished together in layers.
Are chloroplasts visible in onion and cheek cells?
No chloroplasts in cheek and onion cells
What causes the shape of a human cheek cell to be different from the shape of onion's epidermal cell?
plant cells have a cell wall - animal cells do not
What are the differences in cell organelles between onion cells potato cells cheek cells and lettuce cells?
The difference between potato cells and onion cells, check cells, and lettuce cells is the presence of starch in the potato cells chloroplast organelles. The difference between cheek cells and the rest is easier the cheek cells do not have chloroplasts at all.
What cell parts did you find in the onion cell but not in the cheek cells?
The onion cells are much more rectangle shaped, than the cheek cells and the nucleus in the onion cell is much more bigger and better seen in the microscope.
What cell structure gave the onion skin cells a more rigid shape than your cheek cells?
Plant cells (the onion skin cells) have a cell wall, while animal cells (cheek cells) only have the cell membrane.
What is bigger cheek cells or onion cells?
Onion cells are larger. Skin cheek cells are smaller probably due to the fact that they're overlapped or rolled up.
Why are onion cells different to cheek cell?
because they are
What does onion skin cells have that cheek cells don't?
A cell wall.
What are the differences in onion cells cheek cells and amoeba cells?
Onion cells are plant cells, cheek cells are human cells and amoebas split? (i'm smart as well as beautiful, I also managed to keep my airhead image by putting a ? at the end, *giggles flirtily*)

Are chloroplasts visible in onion and cheek cells?
No chloroplasts in cheek and onion cells
What is the difference between an onion cell and a cheek cell?
Cheek cells are only found in animals, whereas onion cells are found in platns, particularly onion cells. Cheek cells, being animal cells, do not contain a cell wall as onion cells do becasue cell walls are found only in plant cells for structure and rigidness. Onion cells, unlike most plant cells, do not have chlorplasts becasue it does not need sunlight for photosynthesis as other plants do. Being grown underground, it receives nutrients directly from the soil, so chloraplasts are not evident. This is also why onions are never green, since chloroplasts contain chlorpohyll, a pigment which gives plants its green color. Basically, cheek cells are found in animals, and onion cells are found in plants.
Which of the 2 cells cheek or onion cells have a regular arrangement and structure?
Between the 2 cells that are cheek and onion cells, the one that has a regular arrangement and structure are onion cells. Cheek cells have an irregular shape.
What causes the shape of a human cheek cell to be different from the shape of onion's epidermal cell?
plant cells have a cell wall - animal cells do not
What are the differences in cell organelles between onion cells potato cells cheek cells and lettuce cells?
The difference between potato cells and onion cells, check cells, and lettuce cells is the presence of starch in the potato cells chloroplast organelles. The difference between cheek cells and the rest is easier the cheek cells do not have chloroplasts at all.
