If it was sound that was being received that might be beating of a drum, for example, that sound gets transduced.

如果将配体看作是,有待接受的敲鼓声,声音信号得到了转换

This is, maybe, the strangest because the ligand that stimulates the receptor is produced by the cell itself; so sometimes cells make signals that they receive.

它可能是最奇特的,因为激活受体的配体,是由细胞自身产生的,有时细胞产生让自己接受的信号

And the dendrites get signals from other neurons.

树突负责接受来自其他神经元的刺激信号

Another characteristic of the synapse is that the post-synaptic membrane, the membrane of the cell which is going to receive the signal has receptors on it.

突触的另一个特征是,它们都有一个突触后膜,这个膜上含有受体,可以接受信号

Now, in this cartoon here I've shown a variety of different receptors just to show just to remind you of the different families of receptor molecules that could be involved in receiving and translating a signal.

这个动画中,我向你们展示了各式各样的受体,为了让你们记住不同族的受体分子,它们都涉及信号的接受和翻译过程
