Dead skin cells are shed in thin sheets because they are held together by "spots" of proteoglycan reinforced by intermediate filaments. Such strong intercellular connections are called
A) tight junctions.
B) intermediate junctions.
C) desmosomes.
D) junctional complexes.
E) gap junctions.

Option C, desmosomes

Explanation:

Desmosomes are adhesive proteins that are found in the intercellular junction and maintain the mechanical strength of tissue by forming stable adhesive junctions between the cells . They are also known as adhering spots. Desmosomes can interact with the intermediate filaments of muscle cells and proteins to maintain tissue rigidity and structure. Apart from holding cells together, they are also responsible for regulating the biochemical signaling pathways.

Hence, option C is correct

answer; the above statement is (true);

try using substitution:

x + y - 6 = x - y. (i'm not giving you the exact answer). since 0 = x - y, then sub 0 in the equation with x - y. combine your like terms, and then use inverse operations, and you'll have your answer.
