Tight junctions are cell junctions that seal tissues. These junctions form protective and functional barriers.
- The cell junction that is involved in creating a barrier between cells is the TIGHT junction.
- The tight junctions are cell-cell adhesion structures implicated in cell polarity and signaling.
- On the other hand, adherens junctions are cell junctions required for maintaining contact inhibition.
- Finally, desmosomes are intercellular junctions that bind intermediate filaments of the cytoskeleton with cadherin proteins.

Answer: False
Explanation: The COMPLEMENT SYSTEM consists of proteins synthesized in the liver. They are activated by inespecific harmful substance (antigen) and begins a cascade of proteins that finally forms an attack complex against bacteria.
The COMPLEMENT is part of the INNATE IMMUNITY, because it is an inherent response, something all humans born with, and it is part of the first defense barrier against any antigen. Part of the innate immunity are too: natural killer cells, neutrophils, monocytes, dendritic cells and macrophages.
On the other hand, the ADAPTATIVE IMMUNITY, is the response that the body develops after being exposed to an antigen before. It is like something that the body recognizes, and then "learns" how to act against it. Part of the adaptative immunity are: lymphocyte T and B, and the antibodies (substances called Immunoglobulins). The immunoglobulins (Ig) are glycoproteins present in the blood.

<span>Atherosclerosis is a common cause, because there is a lack of blood flow in the person's body, and this can cause a male to be impotent.
Diabetes is also a common cause because once again it causes less blood flow.
In a younger man, a cause could be anxiety. This is because nervousness and being anxious can lessen blood flow.
If you have choices, I suggest choosing one that has to do with less blood flow happening, which that is the main cause.
I hope that this could possibly help you with your studies, and have an amazing day. If you have any more questions, send me a pm. </span>
