Cadherin molecules are adhesion molecules found on the cell surface. These molecules are often clustered side-to-side to create a form of molecular Velcro that attaches one cell to another cell or to the extracellular matrix. In the following drawings, two cells are initially attached via such a Velcro. When one of the cells moves in either of three different ways (A to C), it is faced with a mechanical resistance from the cadherin interactions. The resistance against which type of movement do you think is the weakest? Two neighboring cells D. The cell moves away from its neighbor A. Two neighboring cells B. The cell moves away from its neighbor OC. The cell slides past its neighbor D. The cell rolls over its neighbor The cell slides past its neighbor C The cell rolls over its neighbor
