Tight junctions stop substances from leaking across a tissue; Adhering junctions cement neighbour cells together; Gap junctions facilitate cell communication by connecting cytoplasm of adjoining cells.
Le giunzioni strette impediscono la fuoriuscita di sostanze; le giunzioni aderenti cementano le cellule vicine; le giunzioni comunicanti collegano il citoplasma delle cellule adiacenti per la comunicazione.
| Text | Tight junctions help to stop substances from leaking across a tissue. Adhering junctions form cementing to keep neighbour cells together. Gap junctions, analogous to desmotubules in plants, facilitate the cells to communicate with each other by connecting the cytoplasm of adjoining cells. |
