If you are referring to a cell as in a biological cell..

animal cells are shaped by their cell membrane. They don't really have a set shape exactly, because the membrane is made up of flexible lipids.

plant cells are more structured, in addition to a cell membrane, they have a cell wall. This much more rigid then the membrane.

If you were looking for different information,. I hope you find out :)

What gives definition to a cell?

A cell is defined by its boundary, known as the cell membrane, which separates it from its environment. Inside the cell, organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum also contribute to its structure and function. The genetic material contained within the nucleus, in the form of DNA, provides instructions for the cell's activities and growth.
