Which connection attaches cells together but prevents diffusion between them? A: Tight junctions B: Gap junctions C: Desmosome D: Hemidesmosome E: Aquapore
Homework Answers
Answere : The correct answere is "tight junction".
Explaination : Tight junction connection attaches cells together but prevents diffusion between them. It consist of weblike strands of transmembrane proteins that fuse together the outer surfaces of adjacent plasma membranes to seal off passageways between adjacent cells.Tight juction found in cells of epithelial tissue that lines the stomach, intestine and urinary bladder.

Tight junctions are particularly important in epithelia like the lining of the small intestine. Why? A. Without tight junctions, it would not be possible to maintain the gradient for nutrients like glucose and amino acids that allow them to be absorbed into the circulatory system. B. Without tight junctions, bulk transport of oxygen would not be possible. C. Without tight junctions, the cells would not adhere to one another and the sheets of cells would come apart. D. Without tight...

Which of the following statements is correct? A. The speed of synaptic transmission at gap junctions is faster than at chemical synapses B. At a chemical synapse in the brain, an action potential in the presynaptic neuron always leads to an EPSP in the postsynaptic neuron. C. At gap junctions, current flow is always in one direction. D. Chemical synapses permit direct flow of current between two neurons.
