Onions are classified as modified stems (bulbs) and primarily store nutrients rather than perform photosynthesis. As a result, they lack chloroplasts, which are the organelles responsible for photosynthesis and are typically found in green, photosynthetic tissues of plants. Since onions grow underground and do not rely on light for energy, they do not develop chloroplasts like green leafy plants do.
What else can I help you with?
Is chloroplast found in onion?
yes
Why do you not observe chloroplast in the onion epdermis?
Onion are under the soil.So they do not get sunlight for photosynthesis
Does a onion cell contains a chloroplast?
Onion bulb does not have chloroplasts.Onion leaves have chloroplasts.
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 do onion skin cells have no chloroplast?
because it is only found in green parts of plants
Did onion has chloroplast?
Onion leaves have chloroplast but not the vegetable(bulb)....
Is chloroplast found in onion?
yes
Why do you not observe chloroplast in the onion epdermis?
Onion are under the soil.So they do not get sunlight for photosynthesis
Does a onion cell contains a chloroplast?
Onion bulb does not have chloroplasts.Onion leaves have chloroplasts.
Does onion cell have chloroplast?
yes it can, if its a plant, then it has chloroplasts
Parts of an onion skin cell that you can not see?
the chloroplast
What structure can be seen in Elodea leaf but not present in epidermal cells of onion cells?
Chloroplasts can be seen in Elodea leaf cells but not in the epidermal cells of onion cells. Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells, containing chlorophyll that captures sunlight for energy production. Onion epidermal cells do not contain chloroplasts as they do not perform photosynthesis.
Does an onion cell has chloroplast?
yes because all plant cell have it
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.
Do the onion scale leaf cells contain chloroplast?
No. Because an onion develops in the ground, and chloroplasts develop in the sunlight. Therefore no chloroplasts form.
Why do onion skin cells have no chloroplast?
because it is only found in green parts of plants
Do onion cells have chloroplast after being taken away from the ground?
Of course not they do not.They do not have DNA for that.
