3. Chloroplast and Stomata. Onion cells color is purple, not green. Therefore, we
can conclude that this type of cell does not have any chloroplast. Moreover, this cell
lives beneath the soil and thus cannot photosynthesize. It only functions as a
storage cell (this cell has a big vacuole), not as an energy-producing cell. Onion
cells lack of stomata can be attributed to the fact that only leaves cells can have
stomata.
4. Because it lacks chloroplast and stomata, an onion cell cannot photosynthesize
and do gas exchange, respectively.
5. Because onion cells have big vacuoles, their main function is to store water and
energy
