Synonyms: | nasal epithelium, nasal sensory epithelium |
Definition: | Nasal epithelium wherein ciliated olfactory receptor neurons, supporting cells, and basal cells are located. The olfactory epithelium bowl-shaped structures surrounding the lumen of the olfactory pit. |

Name: | has fewer parts of type |
---|---|
Synonyms: | decreased number of, has decreased number of, has fewer physical parts of type |
Definition: | The bearer of this quality has_part < n AND has_part > 0 of the indicated entity type, where n is the normal amount for a comparable organism. Note that the bearer of the quality is the whole, not the part. Formally: If a bearer entity e has fewer parts of type X at time t, then the number of instances x of X at t such that x part_of e is < n, where n is either the normal number for comparable entities, or n is stated explicitly. |

Name: | ciliated olfactory receptor neuron |
---|---|
Synonyms: | ciliated olfactory sensory neuron, ciliated sensory neuron |
Definition: | An olfactory receptor cell in which the apical ending of the dendrite is a pronounced ciliated olfactory knob. The soma is located basally in the olfactory epithelium. |

Name: | 9+2 non-motile cilium |
---|---|
Synonyms: | 9+2 immotile cilium, non-motile 9+2 cilium |
Definition: | A non-motile cilium where the axoneme has a ring of nine outer microtubule doublets plus two central microtubules (and is therefore called a 9+2 axoneme). |
