Why do plants have cell walls while animals do not?
Because plants do not move, they need something to keep them from flapping around. They do not have bones because they do not need to endure so much interaction with their world. They have a cell wall because it also helps them to stay more firm and stay put so that if a wind blows, one part of the plant is in the soil and the other part is at a whole new block. Also because the plant cell is full of water, that is what makes the plant "Perky". When the plant needs water, the cells releases it, and that makes the cell walls less firm. The result it that there is not as much pressure on the wall of the cell and the plant droops. As soon as you water the plant, the cells will fill up, and the plant will perk up again.
