tight junction
A gap junction is a '' tunnel '' between cells in which messages and nutrients can be passed back and forth. A tight junction is the connection between two cells that is strongly '' sown '' with protein threads to help maintain tissue conformation.
tight junction
Tight junctions can be said as one type of gap junction which exists between cells for cell-to-cell interaction so that all the cells of an organism coordinate and function.

tight junction
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.

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,
