Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Plasmodesmata are channels that penetrate the plant cell wall and connect the cytoplasm of adjacent cells, allowing for cell-cell communication and transport of molecules between cells. Desmids are a type of freshwater algae and not involved in cell-cell communication in plants. Gap junctions and connexons are structures found in animal cells for communication, and cell wall pores are not specialized structures for communication.
