Why don't cork cells have cell membranes?
Cork cells do have cell membranes. The cell membrane is a fundamental structure present in all living cells, including cork cells. The unique properties of cork cells that make them suitable for cork production come from the suberin layer outside the cell membrane.
Do cells in many - celled organisms all have similar shapes?
No. The shape of a cell depends on its function.
What type of cell did Robert hooke study?
Robert Hooke studied plant cells, particularly the cells of cork, using a simple microscope. His observations led to the discovery of cells as the basic structural unit of all living organisms.
Why do all tissues external to the cork die the epidermis and cortex die and are shed off upon the differentiation of cork cells?
The tissues external to the cork, such as the epidermis and cortex, die and are shed during the differentiation of cork cells due to the formation of a protective barrier. As cork cells develop, they produce suberin, a waxy substance that impermeabilizes the cork layer, leading to a lack of gas exchange and nutrient supply for the outer tissues. Consequently, these tissues cannot survive and eventually die, allowing for their shedding as part of the plant's adaptation to protect itself from environmental stress.
Is all the cells oval or round shapes?
Whether the cells are oval or round in shape would depend on the kind of cells. For example, the cells found in the cheeks of humans are all oval in shape.

Does cork have cells?
Yes, cork is made up of cells called cork cells, which are dead at maturity and lack protoplasm. These cells are rectangular or polygonal in shape and are arranged in a compact, uniform manner to give cork its characteristic properties such as buoyancy and elasticity.
What is made out of cells is is cork sponge wood plastic or tree?
Cork, sponge, wood, and trees are all made out of cells. Plastic, on the other hand, is a synthetic material and is not made out of cells.
How can you tell cork cells are nonliving?
Cork cells are bark cells. The bark of every tree consists of dead cells. As dead cells, they are empty. That makes them insulation material. Cork oak trees live in an arid climate. The cork oak bark insulates the tree.
Do corks have vacuoles?
yes cork does have a large vacuoles because it is a plant cell. all plant cells have vacuoles that take up most of the volume in a plant cell. cork is a non-living cell from the bark of a cork oak tree. hope this answered your question!;)
Why did Robert Hooke use the word cell when he looked at cork through the microscope?
Robert Hooke used the word cell when he looked at cork through the microscope because he probably thought of prison cells (prison cells are all squashed together like cells/cell particles of the cork).
What type of cell did Robert hooke study?
Robert Hooke studied plant cells, particularly the cells of cork, using a simple microscope. His observations led to the discovery of cells as the basic structural unit of all living organisms.
Why should cells in different shape and sizes?
All cells ARE NOT the same shape. Cells can be of diverse structures.
How are potatoes similar to cells?
they are not similar at all!
In what ways are cells similar?
All cells have DNA
Is a region that produces cells in a plant?
cork cambium, apical meristem, and vascular cambium. all the above
