What holds all plant cells rigid is osmotic pressure - which sucks water into a cell.
When the water is lost, so is the rigidity.

Osmosis
nigel
As the water is poured into the glass, some oxygen dissolves in it. If the water doesn't move, the oxygen slowly diffuses out of it. If you were to pour in the water in a vacuum and then removed the vacuum and left the water stagnant, there would be no oxygen content decrease.

the celery take in the water
Yes a celery stalk is absorbent becase of the Vessel tissue, Xylem, and the Phloem which are the parts of the stem of the celery stalk where the tubes that carry the water and minirals.
A likely component of the solution that causes the celery stalk to wilt is a high salt concentration. Salt draws water out of the cells of the celery through the process of osmosis, leading to the wilting of the stalk.
The cells of the celery stalk are hypertonic to fresh water, causing water to move into the cells through osmosis, making them stiff. When placed in a salt solution, the cells become hypotonic, causing water to move out of the cells, resulting in a limp texture.
By osmosis, water molecules in the vacuoles of the celery move into the salt water. Loss of pressure in the vacuoles causes the cells to collapse and the stalk to wilt.Concentrated water in the celery cells passes out to the saltwater where water is less concentrated.
The stringy cells are the xylem of the plant (tubes that the plant brings water through)
osmosis
The stalk of celery with leaves pulls up water faster, as water evaporates from the leaves, creating an area of low pressure, and the water moves up from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure.
coz it's hidin
== == because the water makes the celery's cells go flaccid (stiff or erect) and that is why celery goes hard after being in water.
