Answer:

A <u><em>receptor</em></u> is a protein that recognizes and responds to a signal.

Explanation:

A receptor is a protein molecule present on the cells on which the signalling molecules can bind and generate a physiological response. Some receptor molecules can also respond to Sun and light. Each type of cell has specific receptors molecules and hence can respond to specific signals. The receptor molecules hence tend to receive signals for a cell. Molecules such as hormones bind to the receptors.

How is human impact on the tundra and the rainforests similar?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Deforestation and habitat loss due to farming and oil exploration has increased the pollution level in these regions.
