Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Membrane-lined bridges spanning the cell walls between plant cells are known as plasmodesmata. Gap junctions are found in animal cells and are channels between adjacent cells. Tight junctions are also found in animal cells and are points of contact between adjacent cells where their membranes are tightly sealed together, preventing the passage of molecules. Plasmodia are an amoeboid structure formed by the fusion of many cells. G protein receptors are a type of membrane receptor found in animal cells that activate intracellular signaling pathways.
