Answer:
Desmosomes
Step-by-step explanation:
Desmosomes are one of the two major types of anchoring junctions containing plaque and cadherins. The plaque and cadherins are present in the intercellular space between the two adjacent cells and join them together.
The plaque of desmosomes is attached to the intermediate filaments of the cytoskeleton. The whole arrangement imparts mechanical strength to the cells and prevents the separation of epidermal cells during stretching and twisting.
