Which intercalated disk /interdigitating junction allows electrical continuity?
|
|
Desmosomes
|
|
|
Fascia adherens
|
|
|
Gap junctions
|
|
|
Macula adherens

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Since the intercalated disc is also part of sarcolemma, it contains gap junctions for depolarization and desmosomes that keep the fibers together during cardiac muscle contraction.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fascia adherens junctions (anchoring junctions) where actin filaments attach thin filaments in the muscle sarcomeres to the cell membrane. Expanded desmosomes. Gap junctions.
