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.


Why do onion and elodea cells have a more definite shape than the human cheek cells?

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.


Why do onion cells look so different than human cheek cells?

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.

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.


Why do the onion cells look like boxes?

Probably because the cells are dead, and all that remain are the cell walls. The perimeter of the box is the cell wall, dead or alive.


What details can be observed when an onion slide is placed under a microscope?

When an onion slide is placed under a microscope, you can observe the cell structure, cell walls, cell membranes, and possibly the nucleus of the onion cells.

What is the difference between a bacterial cell and a onion peel cell?

Bacteria cells are prokaryote, that is they have a lose gathering of genetic material and few organelles, ribosomes being the most of that. Cell walls. Onion cells are plant cells that are eukaryote. They have membrane bound organelles and a membrane bound nucleus for the genetic material. Like bacteria, plants have a cell wall.


Do all eukaryotic cells have cell walls?

No, only plant cells have cell walls! Animal cells have a cell membrane.
