Unlike animals whose body is supported by a skeleton, plants do not have skeletons.

However, they maintain their shape and structure because of a rigid cell wall outside the cell membrane of every cell.

This rigid cell wall has sufficient tensile strength to support the plant in the way a skeleton does for an animal.The structural support system of plants is formed by the cell walls that cumulatively acts like the skeletal system of animals, providing a rigid or flexible and strong support against gravity. ... It is primarily made of structural carbohydrates such as cellulose.
