Plasmodesmata is an organelle that can only be found in Plant cells. It basically connects all the cells together. There is more madness to the logic like why it is connected, and what is transported in the Plasmodesmata. But for now that is all you need to know.

∙ 14y agoPlasmodesmata is a channel that connects one plant cell to another. It is important because although plants can use diffusion to get nutrients from the outside environment, with plasmodesmata the cells are able to communicate and transport nutrients throughout the whole system in a quick manner.

Plasmodesmata in plants equals to what in animals?
There is no exact equivalent, but a gap junction is the closest thing an animal cell has to plasmodesmata.
The purpose of plasmodesmata is to?
communicate with other cells
Can see the plasmodesmata in the persimmon but not in the Elodea?
Yes.

How do plant cells interact with their neighbors through the right cell wall?
Plasmodesmata
What color is a plasmodesmata?
a plasmodesmata is usually brown and button shaped

Can see the plasmodesmata in the persimmon but not in the Elodea?
Yes.
What attaches skin cells to the extracellular matrix by?
Plasmodesmata
Connection between two plant cells?
Plasmodesmata.
What junctions are found only in plant cells?
plasmodesmata
What passage water through the cell membrane?
Plasmodesmata.
What the purpose of plasmodesmata?
Plasmodesmata are holes in the cell wall of plants and algae that allow the cellular transfer of of proteins and macromolecules in and out of the cell. The cell wall does not have gap junctions or intermembrane proteins like the cell membrane does, so the cell needed another way to allow passage into and out of the cell, which is where plasmodesmata developed.
What are open channels in plant cell wall?
They are called: Plasmodesmata
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
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.
