Signal Transduction Interactive Demo
Signal Transduction Interactive Demo is a free, interactive learning demo from the AP Biology course on Lykke. It helps you build intuition for Cell Communication (Paracrine, Endocrine, Autocrine), Signal Transduction Pathways, Reception, Transduction, and Response, Feedback Loops (Positive and Negative). Play with it directly in your browser — it features direct drag interaction and a live visual canvas. This demo lives in the “Unit 4: Cell Communication and Cell Cycle” section of the course.

How to use this demo
- Click and drag directly on the canvas to manipulate the scene.
- Experiment freely — there's nothing to break, and every change is reversible.
What you'll explore
- Cell Communication (Paracrine, Endocrine, Autocrine)
- Signal Transduction Pathways
- Reception, Transduction, and Response
- Feedback Loops (Positive and Negative)
- The Cell Cycle (Interphase and M-phase)
- Mitosis
- Regulation of the Cell Cycle and Cancer
Frequently asked questions
What does the Signal Transduction Interactive Demo demo do?
Signal Transduction Interactive Demo Click extracellular space to release Ligands Signal Sandbox Observe how extracellular signals amplify into cellular responses. Signal Transduction Interactive Demo lets you explore this hands-on instead of only reading about it.
What AP Biology concept does Signal Transduction Interactive Demo teach?
Investigates how cells sense and respond to their environment through signal transduction and the highly regulated process of cell division. It focuses on Cell Communication (Paracrine, Endocrine, Autocrine), Signal Transduction Pathways, Reception, Transduction, and Response, Feedback Loops (Positive and Negative), The Cell Cycle (Interphase and M-phase), Mitosis from the “Unit 4: Cell Communication and Cell Cycle” section.
What can I control in Signal Transduction Interactive Demo?
You can drag elements directly on the canvas. Every change updates the visualization in real time, so you can see exactly how each variable affects the outcome.
How does Signal Transduction Interactive Demo fit into the AP Biology course?
AP Biology is an introductory college-level course that explores the complexity of living organisms through inquiry-based investigations and hands-on laboratory work. The curriculum is organized around four Big Ideas: E… This demo is the interactive piece for the “Unit 4: Cell Communication and Cell Cycle” section.

What will I understand better after using Signal Transduction Interactive Demo?
You'll build intuition for Cell Communication (Paracrine, Endocrine, Autocrine), Signal Transduction Pathways, Reception, Transduction, and Response, Feedback Loops (Positive and Negative), The Cell Cycle (Interphase and M-phase), Mitosis — and, crucially, see how they behave when you change the inputs, which is hard to get from a textbook or lecture on AP Biology alone.
