Hi everyone here we have a question telling us finding of a signaling molecule to a ligand gated ion channel results in a phosphor relation of ligand gated ion channel B demonization of ligand gated ion channel or c chance for of specific islands across the plasma membrane via the channel. So if we have a ligand gated ion channel, which we're going to call this, we have our lipid bi layer on both sides, and the Ligon will find to the ligand gated channel. So we're gonna call this our Ligon. And when that binds it causes the opening of a poor. So now we have an opening. So it will allow specific ions across the plasma membrane via the channel. Which is this right here. So now we can have specific ions going through and crossing the plasma membrane. So our answer is c transport of specific islands across the plasma membrane via the channel. Thank you for watching. Bye.
