OLFACTORY AND SOLITARY CHEMOSENSORY CELLS: TWO DIFFERENT CHEMOSENSORY SYSTEMS IN THE NASAL CAVITY OF THE AMERICAN ALLIGATOR, ALLIGATOR MISSISSIPPIENSIS

Abstract Background The nasal cavity of all vertebrates houses multiple chemosensors, either Queen Bookcase Bed innervated by the Ist (olfactory) or the Vth (trigeminal) cranial nerve.Various types of receptor cells are present, either segregated in different compartments (e.g.in rodents) or mingled in one epithelium (e.g.fish).In addition, solitar

Abstract Thermal losses in photoelectric devices limit their energy conversion efficiency, and cyclic input of energy coupled with pyroelectricity can overcome this limit.Here, incorporating a pyroelectric absorber into a photovoltaic heterostructure device GREEN CLAY enables efficient electricity generation by leveraging spontaneous polarization b

The role of microbial interactions in defining the properties of microbiota is a topic of key interest in microbial ecology.Microbiota contain hundreds to thousands of operational taxonomic units (OTUs), most of them rare.This feature of community structure can lead to methodological difficulties: simulations have shown that methods for detecting p
