Mimosa plant.
In plants, the cell wall makes it firm. For both plants and animals, the cytoplasm inside the cell makes them firm.
Osmotic pressure across the cell wall, here called Turgor Pressure.
Plant cells are not known to have negative turgor pressure values. However, there are times when plants will have low turgor pressures which may result into negative turgor pressure values.
Turgor pressure
Turgor supports plants that do not have woody stems. Plants lacking in turgor visibly wilt. The process of osmosis plays an important part in maintaining the turgidity of plant cells.Water leaves and enters the cell by osmosis. If too much water leaves the cell, for example during drought or saline conditions, then turgor is lost and the cell becomes flaccid. As turgor gives the plant rigidity, loss of turgidity results in the plant wilting

First of all, they do NOT protect insects. They kill them and digest their juices. To enable the plant to trap them they secrete a sweet, sticky substance that attracts insects. Once the insect is attracted, the trap senses the insect and immediately snaps shut after 2 hairs are triggered. This quick movement is called a nastic movement. Such movements are done by using turgor pressure. Turgor pressure is pressure in a plant caused by water. Turgor pressure is displayed when plants are wilted from lack of water and when plants are stiff and strong when they have enough water.

Turgor pressure occurs in a hypotonic solution where the cell's cytoplasm has a higher solute concentration than the surrounding environment, causing water to flow into the cell and create pressure against the cell wall.

The Venus Flytrap uses a type of movement called a nastic movement wish is caused by a sudden stiffening in turgor pressure. Turgor pressure is pressure built up by water. That is why when a plant does not have enough water, it wilts from lack of this turgor pressure. I give credit to this knowledge to: Seventh Grade Science Class ;)
