Signal transduction pathways are important mechanisms for cell-to-cell communication in multicellular organisms. How do the target cells typically respond when they receive signals from neighboring cells during very early stages of embryo development?
A. The target cells move to one of the poles to establish the anterior-posterior body axis.
