What gives the cell its shape and provides protection but not found in animal cells?
cell wall
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.
Why is the animal cell does not have a fixed shape?
Animal cells do not have a fixed shape because unlike plant cells, they do not have the rigid cell wall to keep them in a specific shape. Therefore their cell membrane which is like a mere sheet allows them to be blob-like.
What are two functions of the cytoskeleton in animal cells?
It provides shape & gives mechanical support. Also serves as a monorail to transport substances around the cell.
Which is bigger animal cells or bacteria cells?
Plant cells are bigger than animal cells because they have a fixed shape and animal cells have an irregular shape. Plant cells also have bigger vacuoles and chloroplasts (which the animal doesn't have) therefore adding to its largeness.Edited answer:The largest single cell is an animal egg. this is so because in many cases (as in birds) this cell has to develop into a juvenile animal on its food reserves after getting fertilized.
What gives animals cells shape and sturdiness?
the cytoskeleton
What gives animals their shape and sturdiness?
BONES
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.
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 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.
How do animal cells get their shape?
from the cytoskeleton
What is the shape of the cell of animal?
Animal cells are circular. Plant cells are rectangular.
