what is the difference between an onion root cell and a fungus cell?
830284
There are a number of differences between onion and fungus cells, and most of these differences result from the fact that onion cells are plant cells and plants are in a different kingdom than the fungi.  \n\nMorpologically the fungus cells have cell walls composed of chitin and plant (onion) cells have cell walls composed of cellulose.  Also plant cells contain chloroplasts that allows them produce their own food which makes plants autotrophic.  Fungus cells lack chloroplasts.  Also fungal cells digest their food externally and then absorb the food.  Not much digestion occurs within fungal cells.  Onion root cells are not much different from any other plant cell except that they are specialized to absorb water and nutriens from the soil. \nAlso a mature onion root cell will be diploid whereas a mature (non-zygotic) fungus cell will be haploid.

The base of a banana plant is a rhizome (known as a corm). Corms are perennial, with a productive lifespan of 15 years or more.\n\nSo you see that the corms are a special type of rhizome. So what you have read in the past & what you are reading now are not contradictory.\n\nThe main or upright growth of a banana plant is called a pseudostem, which, when mature, will obtain a height of 2–8 m (varies between different cultivars), with leaves of up to 3.5 m in length. Each pseudostem produces a single bunch of bananas, before dying and being replaced by a new pseudostem.\n\nSince they do not produce seeds, bananas are vegetatively propagated by means of 'suckers' which develop from buds on the underground rhizome. Each sucker is genetically identical to its parent plant. This means that each banana cultivar consists of a group of genetically identical plants (a clone). Variation between clones results from mutations in the vegetative cells of the plant. In all there are some 300 cultivars of Musa, all differing slightly in various characteristics such as height, disease resistance or colour and type of pulp.\n\nTo Wai I:- I searched about it & found that chupon is a kind of tree. I am not too sure but I think you should not confuse yourself with a special type of  stem & a tree having it. Many other plants may posses the same characteristic.You may try this link :\n\n\nhttp://www.windsorplywood.com/tropical_woods/chupon.html

If the relation is not intimate as in mycorrhiza as said by skeptic,there are certain fungi which thrive on exudates from roots at it's rhizosphere.So,due to this reason they are species specific.These biochemical secretions are needed for it's growth and germination of spores.

Elodea cells contain chloropyll, onion cells do not.

Yeast cells are not bacteria.\nThey are unicellular fungi. The cells multiply asexually by mitosis - a process called budding. This description is used because the daughter cell appears as a small 'bud' from the original cell before separation.\n\nFor more information look here:

Taking a guess here but I  would think in a way.. some plants have growth underground like carrots, potatoes, onions, etc. The underground roots stay underground lol, they absorb fluids, aka water and grow from underneath then the stems are actually what blossoms out of the dirt. It is the result of the outgrowth the root has made. I have no idea what I'm saying here :P

Fungi live wherever there is a food source available. Ask yourself some questions: does the soil have abundant vegetation growing in it? is the soil in a moist environment? Most fungi feed on and decompose dead material and live in moist, humid environments. since soil is made of mostly dead plant material(with some dead animal material and some nonorganice material like sands and gravel) you will most likely have fungi living in the soil, decomposing and breaking down the nutrients from the dead plant material so living plants can use those nutrients.you can sometimes see  reproductive structures of fungus sticking out above the soil surface (like mushrooms and mold patches), but the body of the fungi (called hyphae) is usually found weaved into the soil below and throughout the surface. some fungi even benefit by living with plant roots, which is another place to find them. to be absolutely sure soil has fungus in it, you'd probably have to do some tests to detect chemical changes in the soil caused by fungi. hope that answers your question :)

id say the plants and animals are multi-celled and the others are single-celled. also cell specilization could be a difference.

Originally classified as plants, fungi are not at all plants, because they are heterotrophs (they do not fix their own carbon through photosynthesis but use the carbon fixed by other organisms). Indeed, fungi are now thought to be more closely related to animals than to plants, and are placed together with animals in the monophyletic group of opisthokonts. However, unlike animals, fungi absorb their food rather than ingest it, and their cells have cell walls surrounding them. For these reasons, these organisms are placed in their own kingdom, Fungi.\n\nThe Fungi are a monophyletic group, meaning all varieties of fungi come from a common ancestor. Mycologists (scientists who study fungi) believe they are monophyletic because they have chitin in their cell walls and are absorbtive heterotrophs, along with other shared characteristics.

The biggest difference is the cellulose wall that is present on all plant cells but not on animal cells.

Fungus?  Not really a plant.

i've learned that garlic is from the onion family so i would contend that that is the healhiest type of onion.  tasty too!

Mycorrhizas are symbiotic relationships between fungi and plant roots (the term means literally 'fungus root'). Perhaps more than 80% of the species of higher plants have these relationships, and so do many pteridophytes (ferns and their allies) and some mosses (especially liverworts). They are as common on crop plants (cereals, peas, tomatoes, onions, apples, strawberry, etc) as in wild plant communities, and in several cases they have been shown to be important or even essential for plant performance. As the American plant pathologist, Stephen Wilhelm, said: '...in agricultural field conditions, plants do not, strictly speaking, have roots, they have mycorrhizas'.\n\nTo a large degree, mycorrhizas seem to be symbiotic (mutualistic) relationships, in which the fungus obtains at least some of its sugars from the plant, while the plant benefits from the efficient uptake of mineral nutrients (or water) by the fungal hyphae. However, there can be circumstances in which the fungus is mildly detrimental, and others in which the plant feeds from the fungus.\n\nThe most productive soil is humus.i guess

These cells are called 'spores'.

Asexual mitospores (spores formed by mitosis) form within the sporangia (thousands of spores) or sporangioles (single spore or a few). They are released when mature by the disintegration of sporangium wall. The sporangioles containing one spore can have their wall fused with spore wall. In that case, the whole sporangioles separate from the fungus, and are carried by wind like conidia. \n\nGermination of these spores forms the haploid hyphae of a new mycelium. Asexual reproduction occurs continuously. \n\nSexual reproduction occurs only when opposite mating types (designated + and -) come in contact. Then special cells become gametes that fuse forming a zygote. The zygote develops a resistant cell wall, forming a zygospore, the characteristic that gives its name to this group of fungi. Subsequently, the zygospore germinates and forms a sporangiophore whose sporangium produces both + and - haploid spores.

It is not E because fungi are not photosynthetic, therefore I would say 'B' is false.  I would say 'C' as it is typically taught that bacteria symbiotically fix nitrogen for plants not fungi.  The fungi that live in symbiosis with plant roots (ie mycorrhizas) typically help the plant absorb nutrients from the soil.
