1
New cards

cell signaling

process by which messages are sent out to cells…allows for coordination and control and response to stimuli

2
New cards

cell signaling pathway

stimuli received by receptor…transduction occurs…message transmitted to effector…appropriate response is made

3
New cards

transmission

requires crossing of barriers like plasma membranes

4
New cards

cell surface membrane

controls which molecules can move between the internal and external environments of the cell

5
New cards

ligands

signaling molecules involved in secretion, transport across barriers and binding to surface receptors

6
New cards

ligand message

carried by chain of chemical messengers inside the cell triggering a response
