Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Second messengers are small molecules and ions that relay signals received by cell-surface receptors to effector proteins.
Detailed explanation-2: -second messenger, molecule inside cells that acts to transmit signals from a receptor to a target.
Detailed explanation-3: -Signaling molecules are often called ligands, a general term for molecules that bind specifically to other molecules (such as receptors). The message carried by a ligand is often relayed through a chain of chemical messengers inside the cell.
