| 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. |
| Ontology: | Anatomy Ontology [ZFA:0000554] |
| 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. |
