It would collapse into a shapeless bag that would not be able to do the work of a cell.

One for instance.

As you may, or may not know, the cell uses vesicles to transport material around the cell and out of the cell. Without the microtubules ( cytoskeleton " girders " ) motor proteins, Kinesins, would have no where to walk the vesicles to their destinations. This does not even take into consideration the three classes of cytoskeleton and their various structural and signally functions in the cell.

What part of the cell keeps the cell membrain from collapsing?

The cell wall in plant cells and the cytoskeleton in animal cells provide structural support to prevent the cell membrane from collapsing. The cell wall is made of cellulose in plants and provides rigidity, while the cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments that helps maintain cell shape and structural integrity.

Is cytoskeleton in a animal cell?

Cytoskeletons are located inside of a cell. They give the cell shape and sometimes allow unicellar organisms to move. They do this by stretching their cytoskeletons.

In a eukaryotic cell a network of protein filaments called what help maintain the shape of cell?

In a eukaryotic cell, a network of protein filaments called the cytoskeleton helps maintain the shape of the cell. The cytoskeleton also plays a role in cell division, intracellular transport, and cellular movement. It is composed of three main types of filaments: microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules.
