Term Name: detection of mechanical stimulus involved in magnetoreception
Synonyms: magnetoception, sensory transduction of mechanical stimulus, magnetoreception, detection of mechanical stimulus, magnetoreception, sensory detection of mechanical stimulus, magnetoreception, sensory transduction of mechanical stimulus, sensory detection of mechanical stimulus during magnetoreception, sensory transduction of mechanical stimulus during magnetoreception
Definition: The series of events involved in magnetoception in which a mechanical stimulus is received and converted into a molecular signal. The stimulus is in the form of torque on particles such as magnetite which respond to a magnetic field.
