Answer:

The answer is exogenous/non-self signals.

Explanation:

  • All types of stimuli that trigger certain responses from cells are broadly classified into two categories:
  1. Self/ Endogenous Ligands

A ligand is a carrier molecule that can binds to a stimulus, thus, producing a signaling molecule. Ligands bind to specific receptors in or the surface of the cell.

Self/endogenous signals are signaling molecules produced by the body itself.  They are part of normal cellular communication.

    2. Non-self/Exogenous Ligands:

These are signals produced by a foreign source such as a pathogen or a drug administered into the body. Basically, any signal that is foreign to the body and not produced by the body itself are exogenous ligands. Exogenous ligands elicit an immune or allergic response in the body. When identified, these ligands and their source is attacked by the immune system.

Homeostasis involves the maintenance of constant conditions in an organism. What might happen to a protein if homeostasis is dis
meriva
This was answered else where on Brainly, and this is what they said,

"Most proteins in the living organisms are enzymes and they required specific optimum conditions in order to function optimally. Disruption in the homeostasis will leads to deactivation of these proteins. For instance, if the temperature needed for a protein to work optimally has been exceeded, the protein may be denatured and will be unable to perform its needed functions, this may result in several adverse effects in the organism."
