Which of the following is the most likely fate of animal cells that lack receptors for local paracrine signal molecules?

Question

Cells that lack receptors for paracrine signal molecules would not be able to respond to growth factors from nearby cells, which could affect their ability to grow and divide in response to local signals. Hormonal signaling through the bloodstream would not be affected, as it does not rely on paracrine signals. Binding of locally secreted growth factors without intracellular signal pathways would also not be enough for normal growth and division.
