The function of the gap junction is to?

1. Perform cementing to keep neighbouring cells together
2. Facilitate communication between adjoining cells by connecting the cytoplasm for rapid transfer of ions, small molecules and some large molecules
3. Separate two cells from each other
4. Stop substances from leaking across a tissue
