Which type of membrane junction is an example of a tight junction?
Junctions among epithelial cells lining the digestive tract.
What kind of membrane junctions does a cell have?
Tight junction - impermeable junction that encircles the cell Desmosome - anchoring junction scattered along the sides of cells Gap junction - a nexus that allows chemical substances to pass between cells
A junction that is a protein channel linking the cytoplasms of adjacent cells is called?
A junction that is a protein channel linking the cytoplasms of adjacent cells is called a gap junction. This structure allows for direct communication and sharing of ions and small molecules between neighboring cells.
What is the Electrical synapse between adjacent myocardial cells are called?
Gap junction
Is the membrane protein complexes that strengthens the adhesion between adjacent cells a plant cell?
No, the membrane protein complexes that strengthen the adhesion between adjacent cells are found in animal cells as adherens junctions and desmosomes. In plant cells, the equivalent structures are called plasmodesmata, which are channels that allow for communication between adjacent plant cells.

What boundary represents the cellular level between cells?
cell membrane
What is the channel between animal cells?
The channel between animal cells is called a gap junction. Gap junctions allow for the direct exchange of ions and small molecules between adjacent cells, facilitating communication and coordination within tissues.
Difference between gap junction and 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.
What type of intercellular junction stops materials from crossing an eithelium between cells?
Tight junctions form a seal between adjacent epithelial cells, preventing the passage of materials between cells. They help maintain the integrity and barrier function of the epithelium.
