Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All of the listed factors can contribute to receptor specificity. The structure of the receptor cell and its membrane can determine which specific ligands can bind to the receptor. Accessory cells can enhance or modulate the signaling process, and accessory structures can help to shield receptors from other stimuli that could interfere with their function.
