Question
Cells communicate with other cells over a wide range of distances, and the type of signaling falls into one of four classifications based on the distance between the signaling cell and the target cell. For each description below, write the name of the associated signaling classification: Targets of the signal are nearby the signaling cell:_______ Targets of the signal are at distant locations in the body:_______ Target of signal is the cell that transmits the signal:________ Targets of the signal are right next to the signaling cell:_________Explanation / Answer
2) Generally the distance signals can be targetted by the endocrine cells because it produces harmones that travel through the blood which reaches every part of the body.So endocrine cells target the signals which are at the different locations of the body.
3) I think paracrine signals are the targets of the signal is the cell that transmits the signal.
4) I think EGFP signals are the best example of right next signalling.
