they lack a cell wall
pellicle
The Euglena do not have a cell wall. What they have instead is a pellicle. The pellicle is what allows the shape to change.
plant cell have cell wall whereas animal cell lack cell wall
The pellicle provides additional structure and support that a cell membrane lacks. The pellicle also provides an attachment site for external organelles used for motility, food capture or defense such as cilia, flagella, or trichocysts.
A pellicle is the layer of support in a cell membrane. It is the protection of the cell and the casing in which it is held.

with cell wall plant have but animal not
bacteria can be like a liquidish cell but fungi can have a solid cell wall
