b. Desmosomes
c. Gap Junctions
d. Tight Junctions
e. Peroxisomes
Then the answer is definitely C, Gap Junctions

Which plant structure is most like gap junctions in animal cells?
gap junctions
Which of these is NOT found in animal cells?
The following are found in plant cells and NOT in animal cells: -plasmodesmata -chloroplasts -large central vacuoles -cell wall -tonoplast The following are found in animal cells and NOT in plant cells: -lysosomes -centrioles -flagella (although some are found in plant sperm)
Do plasmodesmata connect the cytoplasms of one plant cell to another?
Their cytoplasms are not really connected, but there is a network of cytoskeleton material that gives support to the cells and also interconnects them for structural integrity.
Which structure is not found in a animal cell?
Lysosomes, centrosomes, and flagella are present only in animal cells. Chloroplasts, the central vacuole, the cell wall, and plasmodesmata are found only in plant cells.
Why do you suspect that there are so many plasmodesmata connecting the cells in fruit?
Hhh
How are the plasmodesmata of plant cells and commicating junctions of animal cell similar in function?
Cell junctions in plants are called Plasmodesmata while communicating junctions in animal cells are gap junctions
Which plant structure is most like gap junctions in animal cells?
gap junctions
Do animal cell and plant cell have plasma membrane?
Animal cells don't have plasmodesmata, only plant cells do. Plasmodesmata are intercellular bridges between plant cells. They play a central role in allowing water and other nutrients to be transported from one cell to another.
Are cell membranes in plants or animals?
Both plant and animal cells have cell membranes. However, plant cells have a cell wall, while animal cells don't. In plants the cell wall is composed mostly of cellulose.
What is the difference in an animal cells mitochondrion and a plant cells mitochondrion?
There is no difference. Mitochondria are functionally and structurally identical in all eukaryotes.
Is the arrangement of plant and animal cells in their normal undisrupted tissue similar or different?
Plant cells are attached to each other by cell walls and the connection is through plasmodesmata. Animal cells are not connected by walls and are interconnected by the extracellular fluid
The purpose of plasmodesmata is to?
communicate with other cells
What type of cells does plasmodesmata occur between?
plant cells I believe....
What junctions are found only in plant cells?
plasmodesmata
What attaches skin cells to the extracellular matrix by?
Plasmodesmata
Connection between two plant cells?
Plasmodesmata.
What are three ways that a plant cells is different from an animal cell?
There are a range of differences. Some are listed below: Plant cells are enclosed by a cellulose cell wall whereas animal cells are not. Some plant cells have chloroplasts whereas animal cells never have chloroplasts. Plant cells have a large, permanent central vacuole whereas animal cells have small, temporary vacuoles. Plant cells are interconnected by plasmodesmata whereas animal cells are not. Animal cells have centrioles whereas plant cells do not.
