  • The portion of the plasma membrane at the basolateral side of the cell that confronts other cells and the connective tissue beneath is known as the basolateral cell membrane.
  • The membrane at the cell's base and sides is referred to as basolateral.
  • A barrier between the cell and the blood or other cells is created by the basolateral membrane.
  • Through specialized protein transporters, the basolateral membrane's primary job is to move nutrients from the cell to the blood plasma.

yaroslaw [1]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Termite will not perform its function which is digesting cellulose. Hence termite will unable to decay woods.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Termites and trichonympha ( a protist ) are in symbiotic relation. Trichonympha lives in the hind gut of a termite. Termites give a home to trichonympha while trichonympha produce an enzyme which is used by termites to digest cellulose. So without trichonympha, there will be no enzyme and no digesting activity by termites.
