    Part of the Notch protein is released from the cell surface membrane and takes part in gene regulation. Cell signaling research involves studying the spatial and temporal dynamics of both receptors and the components of signaling pathways that are activated by receptors in various cell types.

  3. Animal communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_communication

    Most animals understand communication through a visual display of distinctive body parts or bodily movements. Animals will reveal or accentuate a body part to relay certain information. The parent herring gull displays its bright yellow bill on the ground next over its chick when it has returned to the nest with food.

  8. Signal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal

    In information theory, a signal is a codified message, that is, the sequence of states in a communication channel that encodes a message. In a communication system, a transmitter encodes a message to create a signal, which is carried to a receiver by the communication channel.

  9. Primary somatosensory cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_somatosensory_cortex

    The amount of primary somatosensory cortex devoted to a body part is not proportional to the absolute size of the body surface, but, instead, to the relative density of cutaneous tactile receptors located on that body part. The density of cutaneous tactile receptors on a body part is generally indicative of the degree of sensitivity of tactile ...
