The correct response that helps the plasma membrane function is **pumps and gelatin-like material**.
Pumps are integral proteins that help transport substances across the membrane, while the gelatin-like material refers to the fluid mosaic model, which describes the plasma membrane's flexible and dynamic structure. This allows for the movement of proteins and lipids within the membrane, facilitating various functions.
