A cell membrane, often referred to as a plasma membrane, is present in every cell and serves as a barrier between the interior of the cell and the outside world. The cell membrane is a lipid bilayer that is semipermeable. The cell membrane regulates the flow of substances into and out of the cell.

The cell membrane, commonly referred to as the plasma membrane, serves as the body of a cell. It also keeps the environment inside the cell constant, and that membrane has many functions. One is to introduce nutrients into the cell while removing toxic chemicals from it. Another is that the cell's plasma membrane, which is its outer membrane, will have proteins that interact with other cells. These proteins may be glycoproteins, which also contain a sugar moiety, or lipid proteins, which contain both a protein and a fatty acid. Proteins that stick outside of the plasma membrane also allow for cell-to-cell communication. The cell membrane also provides some structural support.

Answer: B, planting mangrove forests

Explanation:

Healthy mangrove forests provide homes for roosting bird species, protect coastal communities from storm surges, and provide a nursery habitat for juvenile coral reef organisms.

A is incorrect because the construction of a seawall would prevent the threat of storm surge but would not provide a habitat for roosting bird species nor help the health of the coral reef.

C is incorrect because the construction of an offshore breakwater would prevent the threat of storm surge but would not provide a habitat for roosting bird species. Its construction would also likely damage the nearby coral reef.

D is incorrect because creating large sand dunes could initially protect from storm surges, but this can also cause erosion. Sand dunes would not provide habitat for roosting bird species nor would they help to protect the health of the coral reef.
