The correct answer is lipophobic signal messenger.
Lipophobic signal molecules cannot enter cells by simple diffusion through the cell membrane and because of that, these signal molecules bind to receptor proteins on the cell membrane. The response time for pathways linked to membrane receptor proteins is very rapid-within milliseconds to minutes.
