Cell membranes do not make nutrients (or energy) for the cells. This is the function of the mitochondria by the electron transport chain, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and beta oxidation. The cell membrane is responsible in holding the cytoplasmic components of the cells. The cell membrane is also involved in substance regulation by acting as a semi-permeable membrane for simple diffusion as well as the site where carrier proteins are embedded for facilitated diffusion (not ATP requiring) and active transport (ATP requiring). The cell membrane is also involved in cell to cell recognition because receptors are also embedded in the cell membrane.

Can you list the types of organisms in order in which they would appear during primary succession?
nignag [31]

Answer:

Primary succession is one type of the ecological succession which takes place on the land devoid of vegetation or barren land.

The species which first flourishes on this barren land are known as pioneer species which includes the species of bryophytes and pteridophytes like lichens and mosses.

These lichens and mosses help breakdown the barren rocks through chemical leaching and help increase the nutrient content. This allows the ferns and small pteridophytes to grow.  

Then the area is colonized by the intermediate species which includes herbs, shrubs later trees. These intermediate species help attract the animals and thus help establish the biological community.

Thus, Lichens mosses → herbs→ shrubs →trees.
