The cell wall are partly why the plant cell keeps the plant rigid but it is also down to the vacuole in the middle of the plant cell which is mainly a bag of water that pushes the cytoplasm against the cell wall causing it to be rigid.

Why do plants have a rigid structure?

Animal cells do not have cells walls. Instead, they have cell membranes which allow the cell to take any shape it wants. Plant cells, however, have cell walls which cause the cell to remain stiff and immobile.


Plants with rigid cell walls are unable to do which process Diffusion Osmosis Active Transport or Phagoctyosis?

Plants with rigid cell walls are unable to do phagocytosis because this process involves cell engulfment of large particles, which is hindered by the rigidity of the cell wall. Diffusion, osmosis, and active transport can still occur in plants with rigid cell walls as these processes involve movement of particles across membranes.


Why do the plant and bacteria cells seem more rigid?

They do not seem more rigid, they are more rigid! They both have cell walls. Many eubacteria, the bacteria you are most familiar with, have cell walls of peptidoglycan. Plants have cell walls made of interlocking cellulose.


Plants are able to grow tall because their cells have rigid?

cell walls made of cellulose that provide structural support, enabling the plant to grow upwards. The rigid cell walls also resist gravity to help the plant maintain its upright structure as it grows taller.


What 2 parts do plants have that animal cells do not have?

Rigid cell walls and chlorophyll


Are plants the only things that have a rigid cell walls?

Yes plant are the only living organism which composed of rigid cellwall and this cellwall is made from cellelose


Do plants have cell walls?

Yes, plants have cell walls. Cell walls are rigid structures that surround plant cells, providing support and structure to the plant. The cell walls are primarily composed of cellulose, a complex carbohydrate.


Why do organisms have cell walls?

Some cells have cell walls (plants do, animals don't) to keep their rigid structure. They also prevent water loss.


What living organism has a rigid structure called a cell wall that surrounds it?

I guess you are doing your biology homework. Anyways plants. Only plants have cell walls while animals have no cell walls.


Why do plants have cell wall and animal cell do not have?

Plants have a cell wall because they are rigid structures. Cell walls provide support and are made of cellulose, a substance that is harder than cell membrane. Animal cells do not have a cell wall because they need to be flexible and able to move.


What plants cell walls are made of?

a thick, rigid membrane of cellulose fiber.
