Biology

1) Antibodies are produced into the blood and mucosa, there they bind to and inactivate substances like pathogens and toxins. It's pretty much neutralization.

2) Antibodies activate the complement system to destroy bacterial cells by lysis (punching holes in the cell wall).

3) Antibodies facilitate phagocytosis of other substances by phagocytic cells (opsonization).

The plasma membrane needs lipids, which make a semi-permeable barrier between the cell and its environment. It also needs proteins, which are involved in cross-membrane transport and cell communication, and carbohydrates, which decorate both the proteins and lipids and help cells recognize each other. Hope this helps :)
