Cellular respiration is the metabolic process by which a cell produces usable energy in the form of ATP. In order to accomplish this cells require Glucose and Oxygen to form the reaction which produces ATP and the byproducts of Water and CO2.
In reality its a complex topic however this is the basic form.
Answer:
<u>O floating around one another in a fluid structure</u>
<u />
Explanation:
Cells are made up of varying types of molecules in order to achieve a fluid, stable plasma membrane. The membrane mainly consists of:
- lipids
- proteins
- cholesterol
Lipid membranes help maintain selective membrane permeability. The lipids, formed from glycerol and saturated/unsaturated fatty acids, are made up of polar heads and non-polar tails; they typically only allow the movement of <em>small non-polar molecules</em>. Larger molecules are <em>transported </em>through integral proteins; other types, are peripheral, and may have specialized functions like <em>cell signaling</em>.
Cholesterol molecules keep the lipids in place, and ensure membrane fluidity. In extreme temperatures, they help the membrane to maintain its shape without becoming too rigid.
