It depends on what kind of cell you are talking about. Plant cells have cellulose in their walls that make them rigid. Bacteria have peptidoglycan. Archaea have a couple of possibilities: glycoproteins, pseudopeptidoglycan or polysaccharides. Fungi have chitin that make them pretty rigid. And, algae can have glycoproteins, polysaccharides or silicic acid.

What makes the wall of the trachea rigid?
The walls of the trachea are made rigid by the presence of rings of cartilage. These rings extend from the larynx to the bronchial tubes.
Do blood cells have rigid cell walls?
No, Plants and bacteria have rigid cell walls. we humans have a membrane
List Two organelles that plant cells have but animal cells do not?
Plant cells have chloroplasts and cell walls, which animal cells don't have.
What kind of cell types usually has a rigid cell wall?
Collenchymatous cells have rigid cell wall
Do epithelial cells have cell walls?
No, absolutely not- cell walls are a characteristic of plants, bacteria and fungi- animal cells do not have cell walls ever. They have cell membranes, which are less rigid and less resistant to damage.
What makes plant cells rigid?

How is an internal plant area defined?
Plants are multicellular organs with either rigid or flexible cell walls. The cell walls contain cellulose as well. They produce their own food from organic substances nearby.
What is the most abundant organic compound found in the cell walls of plants?
Plant cell walls are mostly made up of cellulose which is a polymer of beta-glucose.
Why do the plant and bacteria cells seem more rigid?
They do not seem more rigid, they are more rigid! They both have cell walls. Many eubacteria, the bacteria you are most familiar with, have cell walls of peptidoglycan. Plants have cell walls made of interlocking cellulose.
