Answer 1

An onion skin cell does not have the same structure as a normal plant cell... the skin cells are lacking chrolophyll. This is because the onion bulb grows underground and does not need the sunlight to photosynthesize... the leaves do so.

Answer 2

Hi. I remember the cells to be roughly rectangular and dry. Normal growing cells have more moisture. Just a guess.
