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 links animal cells in a leakproof sheet?
Zonula adherens/tight junctions
Are junction boxes normally used in wiring the first floor of a house?
The area of a home has nothing to do with wear a junction box is placed. A junction box is placed wear a junction box is needed to split a circuit. any splice SHALL be in a junction box a junction box SHALL be accessable
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.
How does the neural signal get across the neuromuscular junction?
a neurotransmitter chemical crosses the junction.
Which cell junction is a buttonlike adhesion?
Adherens juctions. Which can also be found in skin and heart muscles
What are three types of extracellular junctions?
Within the multicellular organism tissues, a cell junction occurs. Animals have four kinds of intercellular junctions which are gap junction, desmosomes, adherens junction and tight junction,

What type of junction will hold epithelial tissue?
Epithelial cells are bound together in sheets of tissue called epithelia. These sheets are held together through several types of interactions, including tight junctions, adherens, desmosomes, and gap junctions.
What links animal cells in a leakproof sheet?
Zonula adherens/tight junctions
What is a desmosome?
The function of desmosomes are to provide the cells with adhesion to one another. Another name for them is macula adherens, which is Latin for adhering spot.
What is a stronger junction of cells desmosomes or gap or tight junctions?
a tight junction is when two cells are anchored together BY desmosomes, which act like spot welds. This enables them to stay together without being pulled apart and also allows them to pass things to each other through their semi-permeable membrane.
What are the three types of the cellular junction?
Communication Junction Desmasomes/Anchor Junction Gap Junction
What structure assists cells in keeping their three dimensional shape?
Cell shape and cell contacts are determined by transmembrane receptor-mediated associations of the cytoskeleton with specific extracellular matrix proteins and with ligands on the surface of adjacent cells. The cytoplasmic domains of these microfilament-membrane associations at the adherens junction sites, also Iocalize a variety of regulatory molecules involved in signal transduction and gene regulation.
Is bhusawal junction larger junction than lucknow junction in India?
lucknow junction has more trains then bhusawal
Which junction has least junction capacitance?
point contact has the least junction capacitance
