Explanation / Answer

ANS 35) These signal molecules are released by neurons directly onto their target cell, and have a very short term effect on target cell function: HORMONES

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANS 36) NEURO TRANSMITTERS allow chemical and electrical signals to move quickest between adjacent cells.  

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANS 37) CYTOKINES are released from a specialized group of cells into the bloodstream.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANS 38) These signal molecules are released from all nucleated cells and can be used for both local and long-distance communication. NEURO MODULATORS

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANS 39) GAP FUNCTIONS are released by a neuron directly onto its target cell and have a long-term effect on target cell function.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANS 40) CELL ADHESION MOLECULES include a membrane -bound ligand on one cell that physically interacts with a membrane bound receptor on a second cell, resulting both cells changing function.
