2 Systems in multicellular organisms are organized by levels as cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems. Tissues are formed from cells which perform a single function. Cells are shaped and specialized to serve a specific function. How do the shapes of muscle cells and red blood cells affect their ability to perform their functions? F Muscle cells are square-shaped, allowing them to fit tightly together like blocks to build strength. Red blood cells are disk-shaped so that they move through blood vessels easily. G Muscle cells are spiral-shaped to allow more movement in the muscles. Red blood cells are elongated so that they do not clog arteries. H Muscle cells are elongated so that they can contract and relax. Red blood cells are disk-shaped, allowing them to pass easily through small blood vessels such as capillaries while maximizing the exchange of gases into and out of the cells. J Muscle cells are disk-shaped so that they cannot be easily torn. Red blood cells are plate-like so that they can clot more easily to reduce bleeding.
