Solution

The correct option is D Transduction
A change in state or activity of a cell in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production or gene expression is called as the cellular response to the stimuli. Receptors on cell surfaces are sensing components that monitor stimuli and respond to changes in the environment by relaying the signal to a control center for further processing and response. Stimuli are always converted into electrical signals via transduction. Stimuli are relayed throughout the body by mechanotransduction or chemotransduction depending on the nature of the stimulus.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
