All plant cells have a regular shape that is mostly a rectangle. You could compare it to a brick wall.

An onion cell appears flat when viewed under a microscope because it is a single layer of cells arranged in a thin slice. To discern the depth of an onion cell, one would need to use techniques like differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy or confocal microscopy, which provide depth information by creating 3D images of the cell structure.
Under a microscope, you would likely see the cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, and possibly cytoplasmic streaming within an onion cell. Mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and vacuoles may also be visible depending on the level of magnification.
Onion cells are rectangular in shape. They are kind of irregular, though. They are gray under a microscope unless they are dyed with iodine. because onion grows underground and gets no sunlight for photosynthesis, the plant doesn't waste its chloroplasts on its onions
Oh, dude, when you stain an onion cell, it's like giving it a little makeover - you can actually see the details more clearly under a microscope because the stain highlights different structures. Unstained cells are just chilling in their natural state, not trying to impress anyone with their flashy colors. So yeah, staining basically just helps you spot the cool stuff inside the cell easier.
Using a light microscope, one can view cell walls, vacuoles, cytoplasm, chloroplasts, nucleus, and cell membranes.
When observing an onion cell under the microscope, it appear to be long an oval in shape. Staining the cell will make the chromosomes attain a deep purple color.
Under a compound light microscope, you would not be able to see specific organelles like the lysosomes, peroxisomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus in an onion cell stained with iodine. These organelles are typically smaller and/or transparent, making them difficult to visualize with this type of microscope.
it is like a rectangular shape .nuclear nuclear can be seen under microscope
Like a misshaped box. It is grey under a microscope.

The iodine solution stained the onion cell by binding to starch molecules present in the cell. This caused the cell to appear darker or blue-black under a microscope, allowing for better visualization of the cell's structures like the nucleus and cell walls.

It is to protect it while you are examining it. However, I would like to know why this is under Horse Tack?

how do you KNOW what a cell looks like?1. look at a slide with a layer of onion on it through a microscope.2. look it up on the internet.3. look at books.
A microscopic view of onion skin will show several rectangular cells, each with a small, spherical nucleus.
