Question

What is Plasmodesmata?

Answer 1

Plasmodesmata are microscopic channels which transverse the cell walls of plant cells and enable transport and communication between them.

Answer 2

Plasmodesmata are very thin threads made up of cytoplasm that are connected through cells as thin channels and enables the communication between them.  

Explanation:  

• In plant cells as well as some algal cells, there are present thin strands of cytoplasm that act as channels and pass through cells and make a network of cytoplasm.
• It is through this communication that ensures between the cells and transport of chemicals occur.
• Molecules as well as other substances move to and fro using these plasmodesmata and this acts as the main channel through which plant cells secrete unwanted objects from them.
