You can then use the Content cell menu to designate it as a header. The A menu also allows you to make cells bold or italic. Finally, you can merge cells, by selecting a set of cells, then clicking the menu and selecting "merge".
Cell fusion is an important cellular process in which several uninucleate cells (cells with a single nucleus) combine to form a multinucleate cell, known as a syncytium. Cell fusion occurs during differentiation of myoblasts , osteoclasts and trophoblasts , during embryogenesis , and morphogenesis . [ 1 ]
Cell–cell fusogens are glycoproteins that facilitate the fusion of cell to cell membranes. Cell–cell fusion is critical for the merging of gamete genomes and the development of organs in multicellular organisms. Cell-cell fusion occurs when both actin cytoskeleton and fusogenic proteins properly rearrange across the cell membrane.
A syncytium (/ s ɪ n ˈ s ɪ ʃ i ə m /; pl.: syncytia; from Greek: σύν syn "together" and κύτος kytos "box, i.e. cell") or symplasm is a multinucleate cell that can result from multiple cell fusions of uninuclear cells (i.e., cells with a single nucleus), in contrast to a coenocyte, which can result from multiple nuclear divisions without accompanying cytokinesis.

Webknossos (stylized in all caps) is an open-source software [1] and online platform for viewing, annotating, and sharing large 3D images, primarily used by neuroscientists and cell biologists. It is capable of handling massive volume microscopy datasets, making it a valuable tool in the field of connectomics .
Unlike gap junctions, the cell membranes of adjacent cells merge to form a continuous channel called an annulus. Additionally, within the channel, there is an extension of the endoplasmic reticulum , called a desmotubule , which spans between the cells.

The green cells in the centres of the leaves of this Pelargonium plant have formed from the epithelium cell layer, which has normal chlorophyll. That cell layer does not extend all the way to the edges of the leaves, which therefore show the chlorophyll-deficient cells of other developmental layers. This is a periclinal chimera.
