Usually cells are not flat, they come in a range of structures. However when observing under a optical microscope slide, they are flattened for better view.
skin cells are flat, because they are skin cells . your skin is flat right ,so that's why skin cells are flat.
Flat cells, cuboid cells and columnar cells. Flat cells are there in skin. Cuboid cells in the acinus of thyroid gland. Columner cells are present in intestinal glands, where more secretions are needed.
Of course. When discussing skin cells it is important to understand all layers of the skin. The layers of the skin start out cuboidal (square); as new cells are created, old cells are forced upward. In a sense they are flattened. For instance, visualize stand on a layer of cushions. The bottom cushion will be more flat than the rest. Hence the top layer of the skin is squamous (flat).

A squamous cell is an epithelium cell characterized by its most superficial layer consisting of flat, scale-like cells called squamous epithelial cells.
your body is made of lots of cells. are you flat?

Squamous means flat. So you have flat cells here. The basal cells are thicker and progressively becomes more and more flat.
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.
S. corneum - all or mostly dead cells cells are dead, flat, "bags" of keratin
Red blood cells are made in the bone marrow.
flat cells
branching cells, flat cells, and round cells

My answer is: Flat cells, such as skin cells, often join in or overlap to cover a surface. They work something like the shingles on a building's roof. Your skin is built of many layers of flat cells, making it both strong and flexible. Flat cells are found lining many different parts of the body. For example, they line the surfaces of the mouth. by:a smart 5th grader^^
