In which categorization of cells would onion and cheeks cells fall and why?
Answers
Onion cells are brick-like in shape while human cheek cells are rounded. Human cheek cells do not have a cell wall or a large vacuole. Onion cell is an example of plant eukaryotic cell and human cheek cell is an example of an animal eukaryotic cell.
Answer:
Bacteria are the most primitive organisms known to us. They are the prokaryotic cells. They do not have organelles bounded with membrane as they do not have a complex body. They even lack membrane around the nucleus. Onion cell is a eukaryotic cell with well-defined membranes around the organelles. It also has a well-defined and membrane nucleus. Cheek cell- contains membranous organelles, onion peel cell-no membranous organelle: Cheek cell being a prokaryote has a primitive form of the body, which shows no membranes around the organelles and the nucleus.
Onion cell is a plant cell with a cell wall and a large vacuole. On the other hand, the human cheek cell is an animal cell with a prominent nucleus. Onion cells are brick-like in shape while human cheek cells are rounded. Human cheek cells do not have a cell wall or a large vacuole. Onion cell is an example of plant eukaryotic cell and human cheek cell is an example of an animal eukaryotic cell.
