How are animal cells and plantcells diff?
the differences are that plant cells have chloroplasts ( which make them green), and cell walls (the hard cover of the cell that gives the cell a shape), and animal cells don't have any of those. also, plant cells are cubed, and animal cells are like globs. animal cells remind me of an off-shape circle. they are ovaly! lol!! hope i helped!!
What structure is resonsible for the box-like shape of most plant cells?
Cellulose is what the structure of plant cells are made of. It gives the plant a tough box-ike structure to give the plant strength to grow. Termites and animals such as cows can digest cellulose. Otherwise humans use it for making paper or fabrics like cotton.
Which part of the animal cell gives shape to the cell?
cell membrane The cells and organs surrounding it give the animal cell its shape. The membrane is totally flexible and confers no shape to the cell.
Why do animal cells have differ shape and sizes?
Plant cells have a cell wall, which provides structural support to the cell and prevents major shape changes. Animal cells do not have a cell wall, so their shapes are more irregular than plant cells.
Why do plant cells have a more fixed shape than animal cells?
Plant cells usually come in a rectangle or circle however animal cells are all different shapes.
What gives animal cells their shape and sturdiness?
the cytoskeleton
What is the function of the cytoskeloton?
mantain shape ,gives strength,and also helps in locomotion for cells
What system gives the body shape and strength?
The skeletal system gives the body shape and strength.
What gives the cell its shape and provides protection but not found in animal cells?
cell wall
Which part of the cell gives form shape and protection?
The cell membrane in animal cells and the cell wall in plant cells give the cell its form, shape, and protection.

What does the cell wal do?
The cell wall gives a plant cell shape and structure. Animal cells do not have walls, they have membranes.
Do plant and animal cells have the same shape?
No, animal cell has a abnormal shape and a plant shape is square because it's cell wall holds it that shape.
How is the shape of a animal cell different from plant cell?
Plant cells generally have a rectangular, rigid shape. Animal cells generally are rounded in shape.
Why do plant cells have a cell and animal cell does not?
Becuse plant cells need structure and the cell wall gives it that and it also gives it a defined shape and animals have spines instead so it is not needed/used.
Which part of the animal cell is for support?
An animal cell does not have support, thus it has a indefinite shape. Only plant cells have a cell wall, which supports it and gives it a rectangular shape. the cell membrane keeps the cell together, but not support.
