match the various types of cell connections to their correct examples. cellular junction example plasmodesmata between epithelial cells of the small intestine tight junctions permits coordinated beating of cardiac muscle desmosomes cortex cells of a plant root gap junctions holds skin cell together to form waterproof layer
Plasmodesmata are channels in plant cells, so they match with cortex cells of a plant root. Tight junctions form a seal between epithelial cells like those in the small intestine. Desmosomes hold skin cells together to form a waterproof layer. Gap junctions allow coordinated beating of cardiac muscle by enabling electrical and chemical communication between cells.
