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.

What part of the plant cell gives it shape and support?
The cell wall
What part determines the shape of an animal cell?
Three general factors determine cell shape: the state of the cytoskeleton, the amount of water that is pumped into a cell, and the state of the cell wall.
What is the function of the animal cell wall?
By definition, animal cells have no cell wall -- only plant cells do. That being said, the major function of the cell wall in plant cells is to control cell pressure due to the influx and exit of water into and out of the cell. Turgor in the plant cell is part of what gives a plant structure and helps it "stand up." Animal cells do not need this characteristic, as they have other mechanisms for maintaining structure and shape.
Where is a cell membrane in the animal cell?
yesaround the outside of the cell.Yes. I am pretty sure there is. But I do not know what it does.A cell membrane is found in animal cells, but other parts, like chloroplasts and cell walls are found in plant cells.
Which part of the animal cell protects the contents of the cell?
Cell membrane
What part of an animal cell gives shape to the cell?
The Cytoskelton!
Which part of the animal cell gives its cell the shape?
It is the cell wall which gives the cell a definite shape
Which part of the cell gives form shape and protection?
The cell membrane in animal cells and the cell wall in plant cells give the cell its form, shape, and protection.
Nonliving part that protects the cell and gives it its shape?
The cell wall protects and gives shape to a plant cell.
Which part of the animal cell is for support?
An animal cell does not have support, thus it has a indefinite shape. Only plant cells have a cell wall, which supports it and gives it a rectangular shape. the cell membrane keeps the cell together, but not support.
What part of the plant cell gives it shape and support?
The cell wall
Part that gives the cell shape and holds the cytoplasm?
the cytoskeleton
What part of the plant cell that gives it shape?
That is the cell wall.It is the outer most layer.
What part of the cell gives support to the cell?
if its a plant cell its the cell wall..... if its an animal cell its the cell membrane
What part determines the shape of an animal cell?
Three general factors determine cell shape: the state of the cytoskeleton, the amount of water that is pumped into a cell, and the state of the cell wall.
Which part in the plant cell is the tough noneliving outer layer of each plant cell it gives the cell shape strength and support?
The cell wall
What cell part is a firm protective structure that gives the cell its shape in plants fungi most bacteria and some protest?
cell wall
