Answer:

Synaptic Signaling

Step-by-step explanation:

In synaptic signaling, a nerve cell produces a neurotransmitter that diffuses across a synapse to a single cell that is almost touching the sender. The neurotransmitter stimulates the target cell. The transmission of a signal through the nervous system can also be considered an example of long-distance signaling.
