Chapter 10.2, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The similarities among middle lamellae, anchoring junctions, and desmosomes.
Introduction: The middle lamellae are present in the cell wall of the plants; whereas anchoring junctions and desmosomes are found or present between the animal cells. All these structures perform vital functions in plant and animal cells.
