Summary Introduction
To determine:
The effect of impermeability of plant cell wall or the animal extracellular matrix on the cell function.
Introduction:
Extracellular matrix (ECM) is a collection of molecules secreted by cells that provide biochemical and structural support to neighboring cells. The extracellular matrix of animals includes basement membrane and interstitial matrix. The cell wall is a layer that surrounds cells, present outside the cell membrane. The function of the cell wall is to provide protection and support.

Think about the Arctic flounder that lives in cold Arctic waters and the Arabian camel that lives in hot deserts.
How might these Arctic flounder and Arabian camel modify the lipid composition of their cellular membranes to withstand their respective environments? Also, how would these modifications relate to the transition temperature of the lipid bilayer?
And how could such adaptations affect the function of proteins within the membrane and the overall performance of the cell?
