Question

write a short paragraph on what type of cell is a onion

Answer 1

An onion is made of plant cells—eukaryotic cells that have a rigid cellulose cell wall, a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, membrane-bound nuclei, and a large central vacuole. Onion bulb cells are typically rectangular and largely non-photosynthetic, often containing amyloplasts (starch-storing plastids) rather than chloroplasts, which is why inner tissues are pale. These easily separated epidermal layers make onion cells a common specimen for viewing basic plant cell structure under a microscope.
