Summary Introduction

To review:

The three types of junctions uniting the cells in the tissues along with their functions.

Introduction:

The cells are linked to proteins present within the extracellular matrix. The cells forming the tissues are all linked to each other. These cells can be linked through the cell adhesion molecules or through the cell junctions. The integral proteins in the neighboring cells are called the cell junctions and they aid in transport and protection.
