The cell wall is made up of carbohydrates called cellulose which give the organelle its flexibility. The cell wall protects the plant cell and gives it support. It allows the plant to reach certain heights and to stand tall.
Responsible for all movement and organization of organelles within the cell is the Cytoskeleton. It is both a muscle and a skeleton. It is made up of Microfilament, thread-like fibers that carryout cellular motion, Microtubules, and Intermediate Filaments, which give strength to the cytoskeleton.
