desmosomes and cytoplasmic components!

[genaCoa]

howdy
"how does the interaction of desmosomes with cytoplasmic components enable resistance to tension."

just concerning this question im a little confused. so intermediate filaments are what interact with desmosomes and anchor them in the cytoplasm, does this allow desmosomes to attach between cells preventing them from moving apart? (cell-cell adhesion)

as to your second question, yes
but i do not understand the word "tension" in this context
hope that helps
