What problems might a cell experience if it had no cytoskeleton?

It would collapse into a shapeless bag that would not be able to do the work of a cell.
One for instance.
As you may, or may not know, the cell uses vesicles to transport material around the cell and out of the cell. Without the microtubules ( cytoskeleton " girders " ) motor proteins, Kinesins, would have no where to walk the vesicles to their destinations. This does not even take into consideration the three classes of cytoskeleton and their various structural and signally functions in the cell.

What part of the cell keeps the cell membrain from collapsing?
The cytoskeleton keeps the membrane from collapsing. A cytoskeleton is a skeleton and a muscle. The cytoskeleton function in a plant and animals.
What is a cell's internal supporting framework?
The cytoskeleton is the structural framework in a cell ("cyto" refers to cell and "skeleton" refers to a structural framework).
What is a network of protein fillaments that helps the cell maintain its shape?
the cytoskeleton
What does a cell use to anchor guide or group organelles?
The cytoskeleton.
What protein fiber that forms the cell supporting network?
The meshlike network of protein fibers that supports the shape of the cell is either cellulose (cell wall) or the cytoskeleton (inside).
What part of the cell keeps the cell membrain from collapsing?
The cytoskeleton keeps the membrane from collapsing. A cytoskeleton is a skeleton and a muscle. The cytoskeleton function in a plant and animals.
What is a cell's internal supporting framework?
The cytoskeleton is the structural framework in a cell ("cyto" refers to cell and "skeleton" refers to a structural framework).
How are the function of the cytoskeleton and the wall similar?
The cytoskeleton is responsible for the shape of the cell. The cell wall is similar. in that it is also responsible for the shape of a cell in the cytoskeleton.
What helps hold the nucleus in a place in a cell?
cytoskeleton :)
What maintains cell shape with a network of protein filamentsd?
The cytoskeleton maintains the cell shape with a network of protein filaments. The cytoskeleton also protects and helps with movement of cell.
What is a network of protein fillaments that helps the cell maintain its shape?
the cytoskeleton
What is a cytoskeleton like?
A cytoskeleton is a microscopic network of filaments int he cytoplasm of a cell. This cytoskeleton helps give the cell shape.
What does a cell use to anchor guide or group organelles?
The cytoskeleton.
In a eukaryotic cell a network of protein filaments called what help maintain the shape of cell?
A network of protein filaments is called a cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton helps cells to maintain their shape as well as support and movement.
What cell parts does the cytoskeleton interact with?
what parts does a cytoskeleton have?
What part of the cytoskeleton is responsible for cell movement?
Cytoskeleton.
How do you use the word cytoplasm in a sentence?
The cytoplasm is a part of the cell.
