Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

* Nerve cells (neurons) are famously long and branched (or spindle/stellate) structures designed to conduct electrical impulses over long distances, rather than being simply "oblong".
The other combinations are correct descriptions: Chlamydomonas is generally oval/pear-shaped, muscle cells are elongated, and Amoeba has an irregular changing shape because of pseudopodia.
