  4. D
    (a)-(iv), (b)-(iii), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii)

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Tight junctions: Help to stop substances from leaking across a tissue.Adhering junctions: Perform cementing to keep neighboring cells together.Gap junctions: Facilitate the cells to communicate with each other by connecting the cytoplasm of adjoining cells.Synaptic junctions: Specialized junctions for transmitting chemical/electrical signals between neurons.
