Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Signal transduction pathways are the biochemical sequences by which plants detect and respond to environmental stimuli. This includes the detection of light, temperature, and touch through receptor proteins on the cell surface, which then triggers a series of chemical reactions within the cell to produce a response.
