Sentence examples for sense cell from inspiring English sources

Each visual sense cell has a zone at its surface, which, on exposure to light, gives rise to chemical products that stimulate the sense cell, called the retinula cell, and initiate the nerve impulse in the sensory axon.

The sensilla are usually small hairs modified for perception of specific stimuli (e.g., touch, smell, taste, heat, cold); each sensillum consists of one sense cell and one nerve fibre.

The sense cell of each sensillum gives off a proximal process, or sensory axon, which runs inward to the central nervous system, where it enters the neuropile and makes contact with the endings of association neurons.

Although the viruses are different, once they enter the host cells they all must reprogram cellular gene expression, sense cell-cycle phase, modify cell-cycle progression and reactivate the lytic life cycle to produce new virions to spread infection [37].
