Yeasts are able to communicate with each other
A) by close cell-to-cell contact.
B) through chemical signaling.
C) only if they can touch each other and have merged cell walls.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Yeasts can communicate with each other through chemical signaling, such as quorum sensing, where they release molecules that can be sensed by other yeast cells. This allows them to coordinate their behavior and respond to environmental changes as a group. Close cell-to-cell contact and merged cell walls are not necessary for yeast communication.
