Best Answer

No. Instead, they use the flexable membrane that envelopes the cell.

Related Information:

In multicellular animals, these membranes are internally supported by the contents of the cell. Externally, they are supported by the glycocalyx cell coat, and are reinforced, supported, and bound together via integrins, intermediate filaments, the extracellular matrix, and other surrounding cells.

Single cell animals, like most, but not all, protists, are also bound by this membrane, but lack the additional exterior support that the multicellular animals have.
