Cells are bound together through three primary mechanisms: tight junctions, desmosomes, and gap junctions. Tight junctions create a seal between adjacent cells, preventing the passage of substances between them. Desmosomes provide structural support by anchoring cells together, allowing them to withstand mechanical stress. Gap junctions facilitate communication between cells by allowing ions and small molecules to pass directly from one cell to another.

List three ways in which prokaryotic cells differ from eukaryotic cells?

1. Nucleus. The main difference is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not. That is really the meaning of the words prokaryotic (before nucleus) and eukaryotic (true nucleus). 2. Organelles. Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles and prokaryotic cells do not. I say membrane-bound organelles (mitochondrion, lysosomes) because both have ribosomes, which in come texts are considered organelles, but ribosomes are not membrane-bound (surrounded by a membrane). 3. Size. Eukaryotic cells are huge compared to prokaryotic cells. Most eukaryotic cells can be seen in detail with a simple light microscope. 4. Method of reproduction( cell division). Prokaryotic cells divide by binary fission and eukaryotic cells divide by mitosis or meiosis.

3 ways that antibodies help destroy pathogens?

The antigen itself cannot destroy the pathogen but here are three ways it helps out:1. Antibodies can clump antigens together in order to enhance phagocytosis2. Antibodies can activate the cytotoxic cell responses (a chemical that destroys antibody-bound antigen).3. Antibodies can activate B lymphocytes, which results in the production on plasma and memory cells.
