Cell walls hold cells stiff so trees can grow tall. Cell membranes are flexible so animals can bend and move about. No tree can scratch itself where it itches. There is a disease that makes people so stiff they can not move. That would happen to everyone if they had cell walls.
What else can I help you with?
What accounts for an animal cell's less rigid shape compared to plant cells?
Animal cells lack a cell wall, present in plant cells, which provides rigidity and shape. Instead, animal cells have a flexible plasma membrane that allows for more dynamic changes in shape. Additionally, animal cells have a more varied cytoskeleton that provides support while allowing for movement and shape changes.
Does a polar bear have plant or animal cells?
A polar bear has animal cells. Animal cells are the basic building blocks of most animals, including mammals like polar bears. Plant cells have different structures and functions compared to animal cells.
Do viruses have cell membranes?
no i dont think so seeings viruses dont even have cells and good luck
How do you think the response of an animal cell would be different from the response of the onion cells?
the animal cell is in the animal and the onion cell is in the onion
Do the cells below come from a plant or an animal?
i think it's because the plant cell and the animal cell are the same
Are animal cells larger then a plant cells?
i think so
Do animal cells have large valcuoles?
i think it's the plant cells that have large vacuoles, not animal.

Who stated plant cells produce plant cells and animal cells produce animal cells?
i think that it was virchow? we learned it in science earlier this year!

Is a bacterium bigger than an animal cell?
Animal cells are bigger I think.
Which cells have a centrosome An animal or a plant?
both do.... i think
Do viruses have cell membranes?
no i dont think so seeings viruses dont even have cells and good luck
Animal cells do not have chlorplasts because?
I think it's because chloroplast is used in Photosynthesis, Animal cells use Aerobic Respiration.
Where is the DNA located in plant and animal cells?
in the nucleus i think
What do cell membranes do in an animal cell?
Okay well, the cell membranes sorta protect bad things from entering the cell. It also is needed for a cell to go through the act of mitosis. If the cell membrane breaks, the cell may not divide into 2. If the cells don't divide, I think it is possible that you can never change as in maybe height or actually, you can't really grow because if the cells grow, you grow. Cells are the base of all living things.
Why plant cells have cell walls and animal cells do not?
To give a shape for it? I don't think i know.........
