Generally all (animal) cells have different shapes because they do different things. Each cell type has a specific role which it

has to play in order to assist the body in working efficiently and functionally. Thus their shape supports them to carry out these roles effectively.
Plant cells are not necessarily square, but they due tend to have distinct edges and be somewhat rectangular. This structure is caused by the cell wall which is very rigid and therefore forces the cell to have a defined shape.
While plant and animal cells have structural similarities, they also differ in a few ways, including in shape. Plant cells tend to be rectangular and have distinct edges, while animal cells vary widely in shape and tend to have rounder, more fluid edges. Which statement BEST elaborates on the reason for this difference?
A) Animal cells have rounded edges because they contain cell walls, while rigid plant cells do not need cell walls.
B) Rectangular shapes help plants absorb sunlight during photosynthesis, and round shapes help animal cells absorb oxygen.
C) Animal cells vary in shape because they have different functions, while plant cells are rigid to help plants grow upright.

What material can S-waves travel through and how fast are they? Describe an S-wave's motion.
zzz [600]

These waves are of a higher frequency than surface waves. The first kind of body wave is the P wave or primary wave. This is the fastest kind of seismic wave, and, consequently, the first to 'arrive' at a seismic station. The P wave can move through solid rock and fluids, like water or the liquid layers of the earth.

Explain how a mutation could have no effect on the organism that inherits the mutation
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

A mutation could have no effect on the organism that inherits the mutation because of the chances of the organism's parents/producers. One parent may be dominantly having the mutation while the other parent may have the mutation but does not display its effects, thus labeling this parent as a carrier of the trait/mutation. Drawing a punnet square would best be used to describe the possibilities of each offspring and how each carries or shows the mutation inherited from their parents.

hope this helpsss
