Paracrine

Explanation:

Paracrine signaling is a form of cell signaling in which a cell produces a signal that induces changes in nearby cells, altering the behavior or differentiation of those cells. Molecules known as paracrine factors diffuse over relatively short distances (local action), unlike endocrine factors (hormones that travel considerable distances over the circulatory system), juxtacrine interactions, and autocrine signaling.

Cells that produce paracrine factors secrete them into their immediate extracellular environment. These factors then travel to nearby cells where the gradient of the factor received determines the outcome. However, the exact distance a paracrine factor can travel is not known with certainty.

In the case of infection, cells of the innate immune system secrete different cytokines into their immediate extracellular environment that attract other immune system cells such as neutrophils and lymphocytes, to fight the infection.

Based on the observation that only male crickets produce a song, you hypothesize that a male's song is a form of communication to potential mates. you set up a simple experiment to test this hypothesis. in the laboratory, you place a male snowy tree cricket in enclosure a, which is adjacent to enclosureb. in enclosure b, you place other insects, one at a time, and observe their responses to the male's song. the enclosures are designed so that the two insects being tested cannot see or smell each other, but sound is transmitted from enclosure a to enclosureb.
