The human.
There was no cell wall in the cheek cells because animals and human cells do not contain a cell wall; they only have a cell membrane. Cell walls can be found in plant cells
The function of the cell wall is to protect the cell from foreign objects =]
The outer layer of a cell is the cell membrane or plasma membrane
The cell wall is the outer-most layer, found outside the cell membrane. Animal cells only have a cell membrane, not a cell wall. Plant, bacteria, fungi and algal cells usually have a cell wall, as well as some archaea.
The cell wall in a plant cell maintains the shape of the plant cell. It also supports and protects the cell. Animal cells do not consist of cell walls they only have a cell membranes. Hope that helped :)
plant cells have a cell wall - animal cells do not
Describe how the onion and cheek cell were similar in observed parts what parts did they have common? Well they are similar because they both have a nucleus and cytoplasm. They are different because in an onion cell there is a cell wall, doesnt have chlorplast, and it is a plant. For a cheek cell it has a cell membrane, doesnt have a cell wall, and is an animal.
A cell wall.
Plant cells (the onion skin cells) have a cell wall, while animal cells (cheek cells) only have the cell membrane.
The structure of onion epidermal cells refers to the arrangement of tissues in this cells. You can find the structure of onion epidermal cells online athttp://biology.touchspin.com/onion_epidermis.php. The structures observed in an onion epidermal cell, which are not present in the human epithelial cells are cell wall, central vacuole and vacuolar membrane.
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*)
you go to PA don't you motherfricker
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.

Onion cells are plant cells, so they have a cell wall and more angular shape (but no chloroplasts, like some plant cells, since they are not part of the photosynthesizing part of the onion plant) Human cheek cells are animal cells, so the biggest difference is that they have no cell wall and thus a rounder shape.
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.
Yes. If viewed under even a simple light microscope, the cell structure of a cheek cell and the cell walls of an onion cell can clearly be seen.
