Answer:
Phospholipid bilayer.
Explanation:
The plasma membrane (also known as the cell membrane or cytoplasmic membrane) is defined as a biological membrane that separates the interiors of a cell from its external environment.
The plasma membrane has a function that protects the cell from its external environment, mediates cellular transport, and transmits cellular signals.
It is composed of a lipids bilayer (phospholipids and cholesterol), (phospholipid is a lipid made of glycerol, two fatty acid tails, and a phosphate-linked head group) with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules which hence, regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells. Plasma membranes is very flexible in order to allow cells change form example, red blood cells change shape as they pass through narrow capillaries.
Answer:
The cilia is one of the things that act defensively in the respiratory system.
Explanation:
It propels a mucus-like liquid that covers the airway which traps pathogens (potentially infectious microorganisms) and other particles, preventing them from reaching the lungs.
D. transportation accidents.
Eukaryotic cells rely on the molecular energy of ATP to sustain all of the reactions necessary to maintain life, in the absence of ATP, these reactions would come to a halt, and the cell would inevitably die.
ATP is a molecular compound that provides the energy needed by most cells to survive. ATP represents Adenosine triphosphate, which is an organic compound that provides energy to drive the essential metabolic reactions of living cells, such as:
- Muscle contractions
- Nerve impulses
- Chemical synthesis
- Nutrient absorbtion
In the situation in which a cell was to run out of ATP, these reactions would stop, given that they require ATP to function. This means that the cell would not be able to send or receive nerve signals, absorb the nutrients it needs, or even create necessary compounds such as proteins. The stoppage of these functions would lead to the death of the cell.

This is the elastic protein among tubulin doublets that link them together for ciliary and flagellae structures.
Cilia and flagella are cellular structures that facilitate movement of the cell from one area to another.
This protein also inhibits movement on microtubules from axonemes.
