What shape are most plant cells?
A
round
B
rectangular
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. In plants, the cell wall surrounds the cell membrane. This gives the plant cell its unique rectangular shape.

Detailed explanation-2: -Plant cells are rectangular shaped, eukaryotic, or nucleus-containing, cells with a rigid cell wall. Within the plant cell structures called organelles, perform functions necessary to cell and plant survival.

Detailed explanation-3: -For example, animal cells do not have a cell wall or chloroplasts but plant cells do. Animal cells are mostly round and irregular in shape while plant cells have fixed, rectangular shapes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Complete answer: Plant cells have a fixed shape which is rectangular. These two cells are eukaryotic which are found in green plants and photosynthetic eukaryotes which have a membrane-bound nucleus. Plant cells are bigger than animal cells and are rectangular.

Detailed explanation-5: -The main difference between an animal cell and a plant cell is that plant cells have a cell wall and animal cell lacks the cell wall. The cell wall which is made up of cellulose gives the plant cell rigidity resulting in a fixed, rectangular shape.
