Case Study: Cell signaling is an essential characteristic of cells, both in multicellular organisms and in prokaryotic colonies. It is how cells receive information from their environment, and respond to it, both fundamental characteristics of life. You will watch a video animation of a cell that receives and responds to information from outside itself, as part of the immune cascade following an injury (the video really gets going around 2:30). Then you will answer the questions below. This video link is also in the class video page on Moodle, and here:

Questions:

How does this structure change in response to contact with the messenger?

What does this structure pass the message on to? That is, what molecules change inside the cell as a result of a messenger contacting the fibroblast?
