Is it safe to cover light bulb with towel?
No, it is not safe to cover a light bulb with a towel. Doing so can create a fire hazard, as the towel may catch fire due to the heat generated by the bulb. Additionally, covering the bulb can lead to overheating, reducing its lifespan and potentially causing damage to the fixture. Always use light bulbs according to their intended usage and manufacturer guidelines.
Why does freezing an onion for 20 minutes reduce the gas interaction with the eyes?
The volatile oils are unable to escape, so peeling and cutting are more comfortable. There is no need to freeze an onion, though; just keep them in plastic in the crisper drawer of your fridge; they won't make it smell oniony and will always be easy to cut up.
Why in houses if one bulb is fused the rest of the bulbs continue to glow?
If a circuit is wired in parallel, all the bulbs have their own independent access to electricity, so if one bulb goes out, the others are not affected. If the circuit is wired in series, then one bulb going out will block the current to all the other bulbs as well.
Is onion a bulb?
Onions grow seeds on the tops of their stalks, not inside the bulbs. Their umbels (the flower head on the top of the plant) will dry out and then you have seeds. The bulbs themselves never have seeds inside.
Are you killing something alive inside of an onion if you cook it?

Which part of a onion plant do you eat?
The bulb. It's just like a tulip bulb you might plant in a garden. A bulb is made of modified leaves, so each layer of the onion and its paper are specialized leaf tissue. They are used by the plant as energy storage; at the end of the growing season the plant undergoes die-back where the above ground portion dies and the sugars from it get concentrated in the bulb. The energy stored is used to grow the plant back next season.

Which part of a plant cell will you never find in a onion bulb?
As an onion cell is a cell, no cells are located in it, but maybe you mean organelles, which literally mean "tiny organs" and make up every cell. In that case, onion cells lack chloroplasts because they grow underground and therefore don't use the sun to produce energy (chloroplasts are involved in photosynthesis).
Why the chloroplasts is not present in the onion cell?
You can't see chloroplasts in an onion skin cell since the onion was underground. When the onion is underground, the sun can't reach the onion so the onion skin cells can't make glucose. The onion does have chloroplasts in its cells at the top of the onion. That's where he sunlight can reach the onion.
Do the cells of the onion bulb possess chloroplasts?
Onions are the root bulbs of onion plants. The plant itself contains chloroplasts, which cause the green colour, whereas the onion bulb itself contains other pigments and few, if any, chloroplasts.
Why are the inner leaves of onion so thick?
The Edible Onion is naturally a biennial plant, so it takes two years to reach maturity and flower. This means it needs to store food over the winter period, It does this by thickening the bases of its leaves to form a bulb during the first year of growth. The bulb stores sugars and starches for the next growing season and we harvest the onion at this stage to make use of this food store.
What is the rounded stem or a shoot of an onion called beginning with b?
