G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are two basic receptor types by which cells transduce signals. Classify the phrases by whether they describe GPCRS, RTKs, both types of receptors, or neither of these two types. Note: If you answer any part of this question incorrectly, a single red X will appear indicating that one or more of the phrases are sorted incorrectly.
