What type of vessel is a cellular container ship?

  1. A ship that transports passengers across seas

  2. A vessel that holds ISO containers stacked for maximum capacity

  3. A ship designed for transporting heavy machinery

  4. A type of fishing boat

The correct answer is: A vessel that holds ISO containers stacked for maximum capacity

A cellular container ship is specifically designed to transport cargo in standardized ISO containers, which are stacked in a way that maximizes their capacity. These ships have distinct cellular slots and guides in their hold and on deck, allowing containers to be securely stacked in vertical cells. This design not only optimizes space but also enhances the stability of the ship at sea, as the containers can be securely fixed in place. The term "cellular" refers to these specialized slots that ensure containers are efficiently loaded and secured during transit. The other types of vessels mentioned do not align with the functions or design of a cellular container ship. For instance, ships that carry passengers are built for comfort and safety rather than cargo, while vessels meant for heavy machinery might not utilize containers and would be designed to accommodate bulky and irregularly shaped loads. Fishing boats are entirely different in purpose and design, focusing on catching fish rather than transporting containerized cargo.
