Chapter 3.6, Problem 4MC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The three types of junctions present in animal cells linkage.”
Introduction:
In animal cells, the plasma membrane of adjacent cells connects with each other because of the presence of several types of junctions. These junctions help in the cells to communicate, coordinate and then function accordingly.
