The binding of the molecule to the receptor initiates an interlinked series of biochemical events inside the cell, involving enzymes, proteins and ions (especially calcium). ...

| signal-to-noise ratio |
"Signal" refers to that portion of communications that carries meaning. "Noise" refers to everything else in the communications channel. Thus signal-to-noise ratio, also called s/n ratio or SNR, is a measure of the available content compared to useless energy. In addition to its technical meaning, often used on the Internet to refer to the ratio of on-topic content to off-topic traffic in a UseNet newsgroup or mailing list discussion group.
