Draw and label diagrams of the following cells: a) Cheek epithelial cell b) Onion epidermal cell c) A filamentous organism like Spirogyra.

Welcome back — been a while! Let's pick up where you left off. Here's what you should include in the diagrams for each: a) Diagram of Cheek epithelial cell A diagram of a cheek epithelial cell should show an irregularly shaped, flattened cell. Key features to include are the cell membrane forming the outer boundary, a distinct nucleus (usually spherical or oval) located centrally, and the surrounding cytoplasm. These cells lack a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole. b) Diagram of Onion epidermal cell A diagram of an onion epidermal cell should depict a rectangular or brick-shaped cell. Essential features are a rigid cell wall as the outermost layer, a cell membrane just inside the cell wall, a nucleus (often pushed to one side), and a large, prominent central vacuole occupying most of the cell volume. The cytoplasm will be visible as a thin layer lining the cell wall. These cells do not contain chloroplasts. c) Diagram of A filamentous organism A common example of a filamentous organism studied in biology is Spirogyra. A diagram of Spirogyra should show a long, unbranched filament composed of multiple cylindrical cells joined end-to-end. Each cell should display a distinct cell wall, a nucleus, and one or more spiral chloroplasts within the cytoplasm. Send me the next one 📸
