Answer: ​ionotropic; metabotropic

Explanation:

A receptor can directly open the channel and exerts an ionotropic effect. The ionotropic effect takes place by the help of ionotropic receptors. These receptors are membrane bound receptor proteins which responds by the bonding of the ligand.

Due to ligand binding the channel opens and allows the movement of ions into the cells which helps in either increasing or decreasing the action potential.

The receptors can also bind to the ligand and produce metabotropic effect which means by the second messenger.

Which statement best defines a protist?
Helga [31]
Protists obtain food in 3 ways. They produce their own organic molecules, ingest, and absorb.  Ingestive protists ingest food, or engulf bacteria. These protists extend their cell wall and cell membrane forming a food vacuole around the food item. Inside the food vacuole, enzymes digest the food. Absorptive protists on the other hand, absorb food molecules  across their cell membrane which takes place through diffusion. Absorptive protists play a key role in decomposition. They are considered as important decomposers. Major producers  like photosynthetic protists  use light energy to manufacture  their own food.<span>
