Answer:
Explanation:
The main function of the plasma membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. Made of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules it also regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells. Plasma membranes must be very flexible in order to allow certain cells, such as red blood cells and white blood cells, to change shape as they pass through narrow capillaries. Membrane receptors provide extracellular attachment sites for effectors like hormones and growth factors, which then trigger intracellular responses. Some viruses, such as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), can intercept these receptors to get into the cells, causing infections.
The obligate aerobes need oxygen for their survival, while the obligate anaerobes do not. The obligate aerobes are the species that attain the energy for the process of aerobic respiration with the help of oxygen as the ultimate electron acceptor for the electron transport chain.
On the other hand, obligate anaerobes are the species, which get poisoned by the usual levels of atmospheric oxygen, and thus, get killed in the existence of oxygen.
