Final answer:

Paracrine signaling is the type of signaling that occurs between an immune cell and a diseased body cell, characterized by localized and quick response.

Step-by-step explanation:

Among the types of cell signaling, the type that typically happens between an immune cell and a diseased body cell is paracrine signaling. Paracrine signaling involves molecules that act locally between cells that are close together, moving by diffusion through the extracellular matrix. This kind of signaling elicits quick responses that are short-lived to ensure a swift and localized immune response, where the signal molecules are rapidly degraded or taken up by surrounding cells.
