The correct answer of the given question above would be option D. ENZYME LINKED RECEPTOR. When non-nerve cells become involved in response to signals, the type of receptor that goes into action is the enzyme linked receptor. Hope this answer helps.

The correct answer is:

(D) enzyme linked receptor

When non-nerve cells become involved in response to signals, the type of receptor that goes into action is the enzyme linked receptor.

Step-by-step explanation:

An enzyme-linked receptor, also identified as a catalytic receptor, is a trans -membrane receptor, where the adhesive of an extracellular ligand produces an enzymatic action on the intracellular side. Hence a catalytic receptor is an integral membrane protein containing both enzymatic catalytic and receptor functions.
