A number of connections occur between cells: gap junctions, desomosomes and tight junctions.
The connections of gap junctions are called channels and they act like tunnels.
Desomosones physically connect cells but no opening is created. They are composed of proteins that bind the membrane of one cell to its neighbor.
Tight junctions form solid walls.
What else can I help you with?
What are gap junctions in cells?
They are connections between animal cells which connects the cytoplasm between the cells; in neurons, they are electrical synapses.
What is the name of the nerve cell that connects nerve cells?
I think you are referring to interneurons.
What is the role of the spinal core?
it holds up the ribs and other parts like the head It is a highway for nerve cells. It connects to all of the nerves in the body and sends every message.
What is the structure that connects the circulation of the fetus and the mother but blocks the passage of blood cells?

What is the thick nerve tissue that connects the brain to most of the nerves?
a gap between cells
What structure supports and connects cells of nervous system?
The structure that supports and connects cells of the nervous system is called glial cells, or neuroglia. These cells provide structural support, protection, and nourishment to neurons, facilitating communication and maintaining homeostasis within the nervous system. Glial cells include astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, and Schwann cells, each playing specific roles in maintaining the health and function of neural tissues.
Which tissue connects the skin to the underlying muscle of the body?
Connective Tissue is the tissue that connects the skin to the muscle.
What is a tissue that connects tissue called?
Connective tissue binds and supports other tissue. Connective tissue are specialized even further to support cartilage, bone, fat, and even blood cells.
How does the eye connects with the other senses?
they dont
Which system connects all the other systems in your body?
The nervous system connects all the other systems in the body through a network of specialized cells that transmit information using electrical and chemical signals. This allows for communication and coordination between different organs and tissues to maintain homeostasis.
What tissue connects electrochemical impulses?
Nervous tissue contains cells that send and receive electrochemical signals.
An isthmus connects Africa and which other continent?
Europe
