5 multiple choice 1 point which structure provides rigidity and support in plant cells but not in animal cells? plasma membrane cytoskeleton cell wall peroxisome
The cell wall is a rigid structure unique to plant cells (and some other organisms) that provides support and maintains cell shape. Animal cells lack a cell wall. The plasma membrane is present in both cell types but is flexible, the cytoskeleton provides internal support in both, and peroxisomes are involved in metabolic processes, not structural rigidity.
