The cytoskeleton within the cytoplasm does. It is a cellular "scaffolding" or "skeleton" contained within the cytoplasm. The cytoskeleton is present in all cells; it was once thought this structure was unique to eukaryotes (like human cells), but recent research has identified the prokaryotic (like bacteria) cytoskeleton. It is a dynamic structure that maintains cell shape, protects the cell, enables cellular motion (using structures such as flagella, cilia and lamellipodia), and plays important roles in both intracellular transport (the movement of vesicles and organelles, for example) and cellular division. Eukaryotic cells contain three main kinds of cytoskeletal filaments, which are microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules.
the cytoskeleton
The vacuole enables the cell to maintain it's shape. It is filled with minerals and cell sap. In addition to these, proteins and the cell membrane aid in cell structure.
cytoskeleton
Plant cells have cell walls around the exterior of the membrane that function to maintain structure and shape. In animal cells however, most cells are able to change shape somewhat, as they lack this cell wall. Within the membrane of cells microfilaments, intermediate filaments and microtubules help to maintain and manipulate shape in eukaryotic cells as well.

cytoskeleton
The thing that maintains the cell shape is the cell wall. Only plant cells have cell walls and not animal cells.
the left overs and many things help shape the cell
The cell wall is what maintains the cell shape. It is also a form of protection for the cell by keeping unwanted material from entering.
cytoskelaton which is made of microtubules and filaments
the cell membrane Endoplasmic Reticulum
The cell part that is in charge in maintaining the shape and the internal organization of the cell is the Cytoskeleton. It is a string of intercellular proteins that also helps in the movement of a cell.
A microtubule is a part of a plant cell. The microtubule is a hollow cylinder that supports and shapes the plant cell.
Actin is a globular multi-functional protein that forms microfilaments. Actin takes part in many important cellular processes, including: muscle contraction; cell motility; cell division and cytokinesis; vesicle and organelle movement; cell signaling; and the establishment and maintenance of cell junctions and cell shape.
the system its part of
The cell wall helps keep the shape of the cell.
cell wall and cytoskeleton
the cell membrane or cell wall, depending on the type of cell. microtubules also play a part in giving the cell structure.
The cytoskeletons purpose is to support and shape the cell. In plant cells, the cell wall provides support for the cell, and prevents osmotic fluctuations from affecting the cell's shape.
the cell membrane Endoplasmic Reticulum
The vacuole. In the plant cell, there is only one vacuole that is filled with fluid and helps to maintain the shape of the cell. In the animal cell, the vacuole helps with digestion by filling with food and waste material.
In plant cells, the central part of the cell is called the central vacuole. It is a large, membrane-bound organelle that stores water, nutrients, and waste products. The central vacuole also helps maintain cell shape and plays a role in cell growth and development.

Cell membrane. the only part that has contact with external parts of cell. (also on yahoo answers ;)
It is the cell wall which gives the cell a definite shape
cell membrane The cells and organs surrounding it give the animal cell its shape. The membrane is totally flexible and confers no shape to the cell.
