(Gap junctions)
Explanation;
Gap junctions are tunnel like junctions that can occur anywhere along the lateral membranes of adjacent cells. They allow ions and small molecules to pass to one cell to the next for inter-cellular communication.
They function by allowing the exchange of ions, second messengers, and small metabolites between adjacent cells and are formed by two unrelated protein families, the pannexins and connexins.The protein channels that make up gap junctions consist of two connexons. One connexon resides in the membrane of one cell.
Option B
Middle colic arteries is the most likely additional source of blood to the descending colon
<h3><u>
Explanation:</u></h3>
The middle colic artery is a section of the superior mesenteric artery. Middle Colic provides the transverse colon, has a branch that runs to the right colon and branch that persists to the left colon that catches up with the left colic artery and proceeds as the marginal artery to provide the descending colon.
The left gastroepiploic artery is one of the sections of the splenic artery. Sigmoid- branch off IMA so barred in this case Splenic- proceeds of the celiac trunk, branches accumulation spleen & pancreas Superior Rectal- a sequence of IMA not possible to participate in this case
