Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction

Communication between one cell and another cell is called intercellular communication. Cellular communication occurs in four stages. They are,

  • Signaling
  • Reception
  • Transduction
  • Response

Cell will send an electrical or chemical signal to another cell. Signal will be received through electrical conduction or ligand (signal molecule)-receptor interaction in case of chemical signal. Upon binding of ligand molecule with the receptor of the recipient cell, the recipient cell will undergo cellular changes to respond to the signal.
