What allows a cell to change its shape and move its organelles?
microtubules
What helps the cell hold its shape if it does not have a cell wall?
The cell has a lipid bilayer with embedded proteins that gives it shape. The cell membrane is rather fluid but also slightly rigid. This allows the cell to change shape but it cannot change shape very much. The membrane can seal itself if pierced by something very thin like a pin.The cell membrane holds it together as it's made of phospholipids.

What is the small size and biconcave shape of this cell gives it flexibility and allows its easy passage through small channels?
This cell is a red blood cell. The unique biconcave shape allows it to squeeze through tiny capillaries at the extremities of the body.
How do plant cell change their shape?
Stomata

Why does the shape of mitochondria change?
No, they give the cell energy.
What organelle allows the cell to maintain its shape?
the cell membrane or cell wall, depending on the type of cell. microtubules also play a part in giving the cell structure.
Why is important to have a cell membrane when there is a cell wall?
The cell membrane allows the movement of substances in and out of the cell while the cell wall just gives the plant cell its firm shape.
