bioGOD Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Bacteria don't have a CPU/brain, however they DO integrate and process the signals: by signal transduction pathways and by sensitization. An example of this is the methylation/de-methylation of the MCPs by Che proteins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
