Which of the following is a type of local signaling in which a cell secretes a signal molecule that affects neighboring cells? A) hormonal signaling B) autocrine signaling C) paracrine signaling D) synaptic signaling
Added by Fernando R.
Step 1
This is not a local signaling method. B) Autocrine signaling occurs when a cell releases a signal molecule that binds to receptors on its own surface, affecting the cell itself. This is a local signaling method, but it does not affect neighboring cells. C) Show more…
