The reason being why plants stand straight and tall is due to the rigid-like structure.

When water is absorbed and transported through the xylem, it is then disbursed throughout the structure; into the cells.

The cell is equipped with a very unique organelle which gives a cell its structural support. This organelle is known as the "vacuole."

The vacuole fills up with water, pushing against the wall of a cell, giving it both structure and rigidity.

The cell wall and the vacuole. When not supplied enough water, the vacuole will shrivel up, causing a plant to wilt.

What is the purpose of the skeletal system in plants?

Plants don't have a skeletal system (like vertebrates); trees rely on hardwood at the centre of the plant to provide rigidity and stability to the tree. Smaller shrubs use the blocky rigidity of individual cells, cell walls and internal tugor pressure to maintain their shape.


What is the purpose of the cell wall in the plant?

It provides rigidity to the cell. It provides support and gives definite shape to the cell. It is a characteristic of plant cell as as plants cannot move from one place to another to protect themselves from harsh conditions it protects the cell.
