The cell junctions called tight, adhering and gap junctions are found in Epithelial tissue. These are widespread throughout the body and form the covering of all body surfaces, cavities and hollow organs.
The three main junctions found in these tissues are-
Tight junctions- seal adjacent epithelial cells.
Adhering junctions- forms strong mechanical attachments between adjacent cells.
Gap junctions- these are intracellular channels which permit exchange of ions and molecules.
Thus, Epithelial tissue is correct.
