1. Which of the following is NOT a common type of cell signaling?
Paracrine signaling
Autocrine signaling
Direct contact signaling
Magnetic signaling
2. What is the role of a receptor protein in cell communication?
To synthesize signaling molecules
To transport molecules across the cell membrane
To bind to signaling molecules and initiate a cellular response
To provide structural support to the cell
