The diagram represents what occurred when an onion cell and a red blood cell were placed in distilled water. The best explanation for why the onion cells do not burst, while the red blood cells often do is that

• the red blood cells have only a cell membrane, which does not protect them from bursting
• the onion cells do not have a cell wall what could protect them from bursting
• the onion cells have a cell membrane, which can protect them from bursting
• the red blood cells have a cell wall, which does not protect them from bursting
