How can a tree stand without a skeleton?

Answer 1

Like all engineering constructions, trees combine two elements to achieve their magnificent structures: they use good materials and they arrange the materials so that they are used to their best advantage. Trees, have a single, superbly engineered material--wood--and are ingeniously designed structures that combine strength and flexibility. They can even respond to their environment and change their design accordingly. This allows them to support their canopy of leaves using a bare minimum of structural material.

Answer 2

A plant can stand up without a Skelton or a frame because their cell wall. Their cell wall is made up of cellulose a stiff structure which is also found in wood. This is the strong structure give a plant their sturdiness.

Answer 3

Trees have a rigid outer layer called the bark that provides structural support. The inner layers of a tree also contain specialized cells like sclerenchyma cells that provide strength and rigidity, helping the tree to stand upright without the need for a skeleton. Additionally, water pressure within the tree, known as turgor pressure, helps to maintain its shape and structure.
