Biological adhesion

Biological adhesion refers to the way living organisms or their tissues stick together or to surfaces through natural mechanisms. This process involves specialized molecules like proteins or cells that create strong, specific bonds, allowing cells to connect and form tissues, or organisms to attach to their environment. Examples include blood cells adhering to vessel walls or plants sticking to surfaces. Biological adhesion is essential for growth, healing, immune responses, and maintaining the structure and function of living systems, relying on tailored interactions at the molecular level to achieve durable and purposeful attachment.
