Occluding Junction
Intercellular attachments are different kinds of attachments that keeps cells together. There are:Occluding junction form a barrier that isolates the basolateral surfaces and deeper the tissuses from the contents of the lumen.An Adhesion belt locks together the terminal webs of the neighboring cells, strengthening the apical region and preventing distortion and leakage at the occluding junction.Gap junction permits chemical communication that coordinates the activities of adjacent cells. Desomosomesprovides firm attachment between neighboring cells by interlocking their cytoskeletons.
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
Gap Junction
Corneocytes are cells in the stratum corneum, which is the outer skin layer. Corneocytes are stacked to form slightly overlapping columns perpendicular to the skin surface. Individual corneocytes are held together by desmosomes, which bridge adjacent epithelial cells, and by intercellular lipids that seal the space between adjacent cells. The main lipid constituents are cholesterol, free fatty acids, and ceramides. Lipid molecules are covalently bound to the corneocyte membrane and also orient in crystalline multilamellar structures in the intercellular space, forming a tight junction and creating a high resistance to penetration between the cells within the tight clusters.

Gap Junctions
The desmosomes are the component of the intercalated disk is a intercellular junction to keep cells from being pulled apart during contractions. The myocardial vortex is the arrangement of the cardiac muscle cells.
An AGJ is an annular gap junction - a moon-shaped intercellular connection between certain animal cell types.
Gap 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,
Desmosomes
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...
A pn junction can be formed by bringing the p and n type materials together.
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.
As temperature rises more minority carriers are created, causing leakage across the junction to rise. This can cause runaway and eventual destruction of the junction.
