Question

How do cells communicate?


Open in App
Solution

Cell Communication:

  1. Every cell in the body must communicate with its neighbors as well as tissues and cells in distant parts of the body to function properly.
  2. In some cases, the molecule coordinates cell activities and ion exchange across gap junctions from one cell to the next.
  3. Direct communication between cells of the same type occurs, which necessitates physical contact between two cells.
  4. Two cells interact so closely that they function as one unit.
