1 A signaling molecule A Will produce the exact same effect on all cell types it interacts with incorrect same signal molecule binds to identical receptor proteins but still results in different outcomes in different target cells It is because the receptor coupled with different machinery in different target cells B Could be a hormone or neurotransmitter Correct Hormones and neurotransmitters are signal molecules and involved in different cellular functions C Will not elicit changes in gene expression Incorrect Several signaling pathways cause a cellular response that involves a change in gene expression They may increase or decrease gene expression levels based on different situations DIs never watersoluble Incorrect There are several signal molecules those are    See Answer
