I have researched this question and spent a good amount of time trying to figure it out.My research says NO,onion cells are NOT typical plant cells.
the animal cell is in the animal and the onion cell is in the onion
Both onion cells and nerve cells have the same look. Obviously they have both got cells in them and have nerly everything the same.
Yes, onion cells have a cell membrane. The cell membrane is a semi-permeable barrier that surrounds the cell and controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell. It is an essential structure for maintaining cell integrity and function.
The onion cell represents a plant cell, specifically from the onion bulb (Allium cepa). Plant cells, like those in onions, have a distinct cell wall, which provides structural support, as well as chloroplasts for photosynthesis (though onion cells typically do not contain chloroplasts as they grow underground). They also feature a large central vacuole that helps maintain turgor pressure. These characteristics differentiate them from animal cells, which lack a cell wall and chloroplasts.
an animal cell DOES NOT have a cell walla plant cell DOES have a cell wall
many
Because it is obtained from the plant of onion and moreover it has a well defined cell wall, a characteristic feature of plants.
the animal cell is in the animal and the onion cell is in the onion
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.
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.
Yes, an onion is a plant and plants have cell membranes and cell walls
Both onion cells and nerve cells have the same look. Obviously they have both got cells in them and have nerly everything the same.
Onion cells have a cell wall made of cellulose, while animal cells don't have a cell wall. Also, onion cells would have chloroplasts and chlorophyll so they can do photosynthesis. And animal cells have organelles called either centrosomes or centrioles, and plants don't.
cell wall
The cell wall in the onion skin cells gives them a more rigid shape compared to cheek cells, which lack a cell wall and instead have a flexible cell membrane. The cell wall provides structural support and protection for the cell, helping maintain its shape.
The structure of an onion cell wall provides support and protection to the cell, helping the onion plant maintain its shape and resist external stress. This allows the plant to grow and thrive in various environments.
A onion is a root cell.
