Define receptor of body?
A receptor is located on a cell membrane. Any neuronic transmission, hormone, etc. that cannot get inside of the cell's membrane will sit on the receptor in order to pass its message along to the cell. When the molecule sits on the receptor, it causes a series of reactions to occur inside of the cell. From the series of reactions that occur inside of the cell, the message is passed along, and the cell will perform as indicated by the molecule on the cell receptor.
What is serpentine receptor?
A serpentine receptor is a receptor in the cell membrane that plays a role in signal transduction.
What cell part receives nerve impulses and hormones from other?
receptor molecules on cell membranes receptor molecules on cell membranes
Hormone and receptor interactions are based on?
The target cell, the receptor, and the species.
Which receptor cell is associated with seeing colors?
The receptor cell that is associated with seeing colors is the ganglia.
What binds to a signal molecule enabling the cell to respond to the signal molecule?

Unique touch receptor formed from stratum basal cell?
A unique touch receptor formed from stratum basale cell (and a nerve fiber) is a merkel cell.
What is the function of a receptor?
Receptor proteins are used to pass messages between cells. They send the messages from outside of the cell to the inside of the cell.
