Question
Chapter 5.7, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The junctions that are cell-to-cell junctions and cell-to-ECM junctions.
Introduction:
Anchoring junction works like a rivet and makes a connection between the neighboring cells. The cytoskeleton of each cell are connected by proteins that are located at anchoring junctions, and this type of junction helps the skin cells to adhere together.
