JUNCTIONS BETWEEN CELLS
When Cells come into contact with each other, various junctional arrangements may form. They are classified as follow:

TIGHT (Occluding) JUNCTIONS
•Tight junctions, or Zonula occludens arethe closely associatedareas of two cells whose membranes join together forminga virtually impermeable barrier to fluid. It is a type ofjunctional complex present only in vertebrates.

• Tight junctions, combine well with membranes of adjacent cells by anInterlocking Systemof occluding ridgesmuch like the teeth ofa zipper.

(Half-Desmosome) : They connect intermediate Filament to Basal and separate plasma membraneof cell from Basal Lamina.

FOCAL ADHESION
• Adherens junctions calledFOCAL ADHESION can join a cell to the ECM, primarily through fibronectinreceptors.

GAP (Communicating) JUNCTIONS
Cytoplasmic bridgebetween cells for passing chemical &electrical signals. They are frequentlyfound in epithelial Cells.Mostly in heart &nerves, but can be found in liver, pancreas, ovary.
