As you are reading this question, muscles around your eyes are coordinating its movement across the screen. In order for your muscles to contract, nerve cell endings that are in close proximity to the muscle must stimulate it by releasing chemical messengers that diffuse to bind receptors on muscle cells. This is an example of:

Diabetes is a disease that affects a large population worldwide. In both types of diabetes there are issues with the hormone insulin. Insulin is produced by cells of the pancreas and is used to allow glucose to get into muscle and fat cells. What type of cell communication is mediated by insulin?

Cell communication

During development, important cell communication pathways are activated between neighboring cells. One such system involves cells that are located next to one another; one cell expresses a ligand on its surface, called Delta, which binds to a cell surface receptor, called Notch, on the cell next to it. What type of cell signaling is this?

Which of the following would most likely participate in cell-cell recognition events?
