Animal cells come in a variety of shapes, depending upon their specialized function. Epithelial cells are rather flat. Muscle cells are not flat, they are more tubular in shape. While blood cells are roundish. And so forth.
Squamous means flat. So you have flat cells here. The basal cells are thicker and progressively becomes more and more flat.
All the cells collected from an animal of which the human body is are animal.
Animal cells are different from plant cells in that the cell wall of animal cells is not made up of cellulose.
Animal cells, not plant cells.
plant cell shave a cell wall - animal cells do not plants cells have chlorophyll - animal cells do not

Skin cells, specifically the outer layer called the epidermis, are flat to provide a protective barrier for the body. The flat shape allows them to form tight connections with neighboring cells, creating a strong barrier against pathogens and preventing water loss. Additionally, the flatness of skin cells helps in shedding dead cells easily, renewing the skin's surface.

plant cells are in plants and animal cells are in animals
Plant cells contain cell walls while animal cells do not (animal cells contain cell membranes).
animal cells can't make their own food, plant cells can so animal cells need to eat plant cells
