What maintains shape of plant cells?
The cell wall in a plant cell maintains the shape of the plant cell. It also supports and protects the cell. Animal cells do not consist of cell walls they only have a cell membranes. Hope that helped :)
A botanist hypothesis that all onion cells have the same shape how would you go about veryfying or disproving this?
an onion cell is a plant cell, in which plant cells are rectangular shape and so are onion cells
What helps the cell hold its shape if it does not have a cell wall?
The cell has a lipid bilayer with embedded proteins that gives it shape. The cell membrane is rather fluid but also slightly rigid. This allows the cell to change shape but it cannot change shape very much. The membrane can seal itself if pierced by something very thin like a pin.The cell membrane holds it together as it's made of phospholipids.
Where is the cell membrane located in a plant cell?
The cell wall is the outer-most layer, found outside the cell membrane. Animal cells only have a cell membrane, not a cell wall. Plant, bacteria, fungi and algal cells usually have a cell wall, as well as some archaea.
What cells are arranged in a regular pattern a plant or animal cell?
Plant cells are arranged in a regular patern. The reason for this is simple, because plants have no skeletal systems, they have deveoped another system for structual regidityp; cell walls are to blame for the reula shape. In an animal cell, because of the immense skeletal system the only means of regidity is the cell membrane.
What is a general shape of a plant cell?
A plant cell typically has a rectangular shape with a rigid cell wall surrounding it. The cell contains a large central vacuole, chloroplasts for photosynthesis, and other organelles like the nucleus and mitochondria. Overall, plant cells are specialized for supporting the structure and function of the plant.
What is the general shape of the cell?
The general shape of a cell would be a cirle, or an oval
What features can be used to distinguish between an animal cell and a plant cell?
Plant cell has definite shape while animal cell has irregular shape.
What is the difference between an animal cell and a plant cell?
An animal cell has no cell wall, but a plant cell has a cell wall.An animal cell has no chloroplast but plant cells do have it.An animal cell is not rigid and can change its shape, while a plant cell is rigid and has a fixed shape.
What is the Typical plant cell shape?
the shape is circular
What shape is the membrane?
Shape of the animal or plant cell.
What is the purpose of of a cell wall in a plant cell?
The purpose of the cell wall in a plant cell is to give the cell structure and shape. Animal and human cells have no specific shape or structure.
What shape is a vacuoles?
A vacuole is an organelle found only in a plant cell and a plant cell is rectangular in shape. I hope that helped!
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.
Does a cell wall provide storage for plant cell?
No a plant cell's cell wall protects it and gives it its shape
Why does a plant have more defined shape then a animal cell?
Because the plant cell has cell wall around it
What do the cell membrane do in the plant cell?
the cell membrane gives the cell its shape.
