What else can I help you with?
Why do onion cells do not have chloroplast?
Onion cells do not have chloroplasts because the onion is underground where there is no light. Without light chloroplasts have no purpose, so onion cells just don't have them.
What structures were you able to see in the onion cell?
The Human cell and Onion cell have Nucleus
Why does an onion not have a cytoplasm?
All cells have cytoplasm, so yes, onion cells do have cytoplasm.
How do the structures and arrangement of cells in an onion help to protect and support the parts underneath it?
The outermost layer of cells in an onion, the epidermis, forms a protective barrier against environmental stresses. The arrangement of cells in multiple layers allows for strength and flexibility, providing support to the parts underneath. Additionally, specialized cells called sclerenchyma cells provide extra structural support to the onion.
What does effect iodine have on the onion cells?
Iodine is often used to stain onion cells to make the cell structures more visible under a microscope. The iodine solution will stain specific cell components such as the cell walls and starch grains, allowing for easier observation and analysis of the cells.
What is the difference between frog cell and onion cell?
Oh, dude, it's like comparing apples and oranges... or in this case, frogs and onions. Frog cells come from frogs, obviously, and onion cells come from onions. They have different structures and functions, but hey, at the end of the day, they're both just cells, man.
Why do onion cells do not have chloroplast?
Onion cells do not have chloroplasts because the onion is underground where there is no light. Without light chloroplasts have no purpose, so onion cells just don't have them.
Why are no chloroplasts fond in the onion cells?
Onions are underground structures. They do not get sunlight.
What structure you seen in hydrilla leaf cell but in onion cell?
The structures that are found in the hydrilla which are not found in the onion cell are chloroplasts, specifically the stomata and chlorophyll. Onions lack these structures because they grow underground.
What Onion epidermis is a suitable tissue to use for observing cellular structures with a compound light microscope because this tissue is thin enough to?
Onion epidermis is a suitable tissue for observing cellular structures with a compound light microscope because it is transparent, allowing light to pass through easily, and the cells are thin enough to view individual cells and structures such as cell walls, nuclei, and chloroplasts. Additionally, the large size of onion cells compared to other plant cells makes it easier to study their internal structures.
What structures were you able to see in the onion cell?
The Human cell and Onion cell have Nucleus
What is the liquid called in the center of the onion?
The liquid inside an onion cell, at the center, is the same as in all other cells and is called cytoplasm.
What is bigger cheek cells or onion cells?
Cheek cells are typically larger than onion cells. Cheek cells are human epithelial cells that make up the inside lining of the mouth, while onion cells are plant cells found in the epidermis of onion bulbs. Cheek cells are usually around 30-40 micrometers in size, while onion cells are generally smaller at around 0.1-0.2 millimeters.
Why does an onion not have a cytoplasm?
All cells have cytoplasm, so yes, onion cells do have cytoplasm.
What is the difference from a cheek cell and an onion cell?
Well, one is a cell from a plant and another is from an animal, so they're very different. Onion cells have a cell wall, a large central vacuole and plants-only organelles like chloroplast. Cheek cells lack cell walls, has a significantly greater amount of mitochondria and has lysosomes while plant cells very rarely have any lysosomes.
Why cant you use methylene blue when staining onion cells?
Methylene blue is not suitable for staining onion cells because it does not effectively bind to the distinct cell structures present in onion cells, such as the cell walls and nuclei. Toluidine blue or safranin O are commonly used stains for onion cells as they provide better contrast and visibility of cell structures.
How do the structures and arrangement of cells in an onion help to protect and support the parts underneath it?
The outermost layer of cells in an onion, the epidermis, forms a protective barrier against environmental stresses.
