Answer:
Membrane carbohydrates perform two main functions: participate in cell recognition and adhesion, either cell-cell signaling or cell-pathogen interactions, and they have a structural role as a physical barrier
Along with membrane proteins, these carbohydrates form distinctive cellular markers, that allow cells to recognize each other. These markers are very important in the immune system, allowing immune cells to differentiate between body cells, which they shouldn't attack, and foreign cells or tissues, which they should.
