Why do plant cells have rigid cells while animal cells don't have?

Plant cells have rigid cell walls composed of cellulose that provide structural support and protection. Animal cells do not have cell walls but instead have flexible cell membranes that allow for mobility and shape changes. The presence of cell walls in plant cells is essential for withstanding the pressure of water entering the cell.

Why do plants have a rigid structure?

Animal cells do not have cells walls. Instead, they have cell membranes which allow the cell to take any shape it wants. Plant cells, however, have cell walls which cause the cell to remain stiff and immobile.


Do plants have cell membranes?

Yes, plants have cell membranes. Cell membranes are found in all living cells, including plant cells, and they serve as a protective barrier that controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
