The term "communicating junction" typically refers to gap junctions, which are specialized intercellular connections that allow direct communication between adjacent cells. These junctions enable the transfer of ions, small molecules, and electrical signals, facilitating coordinated responses in tissues. They play a crucial role in various physiological processes, including muscle contraction and neural signaling.

At the bottom of the larynx the windpipe what is it also known as?
The junction of the larynx and the windpipe is known as the laryngotracheal juncture or the cricotracheal junction.
What are schottky diodes are also known as?
metal-semiconductor junction diodes
Why ordinary transistor is known as bipolar junction transistor?
Transistor is known as bipolar junction becoz it has 2 pole. Input is given to the 2 junction and output is taken from to junction
What role does the reference junction play in thermocouple readings?
The reference junction, also known as the cold junction, serves as the point where the thermocouple temperature is compared to the known temperature of the reference junction. This comparison helps to accurately determine the temperature at the measurement point. The reference junction compensation is required because the output voltage of the thermocouple is dependent on the temperature difference between the measurement point and the reference junction.
What is metadiaphysis?
The junction between the metaphysis and diaphysis of a long bone. Also known as "diametaphysis".
What is the junction called between 2 communicating neurons?
The junction between two communicating neurons is called a synapse. At the synapse, electrical signals called action potentials are converted into chemical signals in the form of neurotransmitters, which then travel across the synaptic cleft to relay the signal to the next neuron.
What is a type of communicating junction?
A type of communicating junction is a gap junction, which consists of connexin proteins that form channels between adjacent cells. These channels allow for direct transfer of ions and small molecules, enabling rapid intercellular communication. Gap junctions are crucial for processes such as synchronized contraction in cardiac and smooth muscle tissues. They play a significant role in maintaining tissue homeostasis and coordinating cellular activities.
The art of communicating to persuade is known as?
rhetoric
Neuromuscular junction is also known as the what?
The NMJ is the region where the efferent motor nerves connect with muscle tissue. When a signal is sent from the brain, down the spinal cord, to the nerve, neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft (primary acetylcholine), which cause the muscle to contract.
Did the North won the Battle of Manassas Junction?
No, the North lost both the battles known as Manassas and also as Bull Run.
By what name is the junction between the manubrium and the sternal body known?
The junction between the manubrium and the sternal body is known as the manubriosternal joint.
What intercellular junction in which cells are bound together by fusion of the outer cell membrane is called what?
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.
