What are the four types of cellular junctions?
plasmodesmata tight junctions desmosomes gap junctions the plasmodesmata is the only cell junction in the plant cells.. and the other three cell junctions are in the animal cells...
The urinary bladder is protected from leaking due to cell-to-cell junctions called?
The urinary bladder is protected from leaking due to the junctions between cells. These are called gap junctions in the field of biology.
What intercellular junction in which cells are bound together by fusion of the outer cell membrane is called what?
In vertebrates, there are three major types of cell junction:1. Adherens junctions, desmosomes and hemidesmosomes (anchoring junctions.)2. Gap junctions (communicating junction)3. Tight junctions (occluding junctions)Your question most likely is for the tight junction but more information in the question would be helpful.
What types of cell junctions connect cells within tissues?
The apical surface does not have any cell junctions because it is a free surface exposed to things that are not epithelial cells. The lateral surfaces of an epithelial cell, which face the adjacent cells on either side contain tight junctions, adherens junctions, desmosomes and/or gap junctions. The basal surface of an epithelial cell adhere to extracellular materials like the basement membrane. Hemidesmosomes anchor the epithelium to the basement membrane in the basal surface.
What will happen in certain tissues without tight junctions?
Without tight junctions in certain tissues, there would be a large amount of molecules freely flowing around the epithelial tissue. These junctions keep the cells in there safe from flowing through the epithelium.
What are junctions?
Junctions on roads are intersections.
Which type of junctions prevent water leakage between cells?
Tight Junctions
How many junctions are there on the M25?
There are 31 Junctions on the M25
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
What are the four types of cellular junctions?

Plasmodesmata of plant cells are functionally equivalent to what of animal cells?
If the answer choices are a. Extracellular Martix b. Desmosomes c. Gap Junctions d. Tight Junctions e. Peroxisomes Then the answer is definitely C, Gap Junctions
It is essential for heart muscle cells to beat in a coordinated fashion The cell junctions that would best facilitate this are?
anchoring junctions, im pretty positive. if not its tight junctions. but yeah, pretty sure its anchoring junctions.
Which junctions permit cytoplasmic interconnections between cells?
1. OCCLUDING JUNCTIONS: tight junctions (vertebrates only) septate junctions (invertebrates mainly) 2. Zonula occludens: Occluding junctions seal cells together in an epithelium in a way that prevents even small molecules from leaking from one side of the sheet to the other. I am not sure if that's what you are asking but this is all i know and i
What type of junctions will create a solid barrier to prevent molecules from moving between the cells?
tight junctions
Skin cells are attached to the extracellular matrix by a. anchoring junctions. b. tight junctions. c. plasmodesmata. d. communicating junctions. e. basal bodies.?
c
Does skeletal muscle have gap junctions?
No. It's the only type of muscle tissue that doesn't have gap junctions. Cardiac and smooth muscles have gap junctions.
Which plant structure is most like gap junctions in animal cells?
gap junctions
