Cells can have lots of different shapes. In a lab, the animal cell was like a wavy circle, the plant cell looked like a rectangle, and the bacteria cell was squiggly. Since all of these cells had different shapes, I can tell that cells don't just have one shape.

What is the Claim, Evidence, and Reasoning here?

1 answer

Claim: Cells can have different shapes.
Evidence: In the lab, the animal cell was observed to have a wavy circle shape, the plant cell had a rectangular shape, and the bacteria cell had a squiggly shape.
Reasoning: Based on the observation of different shapes in the lab, it can be concluded that cells do not have a standardized shape, suggesting that cells can have various shapes depending on the type and function of the organism.
