In mosquito's the ciliary apparatus is found in the mechanosensory transduction system (used for hearing) within the scolopidia. The aparatus is constructed by a number of tubules within a cell membrane and is attached to a cap, and as flagellum movements (from sound) happen, it causes stretching of these cells which can instigagte an action potential in the neurones
What else can I help you with?
What produce aqueous humor?
The ciliary body and the choroid plexus within the lateral ventricles of the brain produce the aqueous humor in the eye. The aqueous humor nourishes the cornea and the lens, provides intraocular pressure, and removes waste from the anterior chamber of the eye.
Are there bipolar cells in the ciliary ganglion?
No, bipolar cells are a type of neuron found in the retina of the eye, not in the ciliary ganglion. The ciliary ganglion primarily contains postganglionic parasympathetic neurons that innervate the muscles controlling the shape of the lens in the eye.
Contains the ciliary muscle of the eye?
The ciliary muscle is located within the eye and is responsible for controlling the shape of the lens, which is crucial for focusing on objects at different distances. Contraction and relaxation of the ciliary muscle affect the thickness of the lens, allowing for accommodation of near and far vision.
What is Zinn's membrane?
A Zinn's membrane is another name for a ciliary zonule, a ring of strands connecting the ciliary body with the lens of the eye.
What is a zonule of Zinn?
A zonule of Zinn is another word for a ciliary zonule, a string of strand connecting the ciliary body with the crystalline lens of the eye.
Is the ciliary muscle part of the ciliary body?
the ciliary muscle is the smooth muscle of the ciliary body
What is the smooth muscle structure that is attached to the lens?
iris and ciliary muscle
What is a group of ciliated epithelial cell called?
Within the Eye, the Ciliary Body consists of four levels: the Ciliary Muscles; the Vascular layer; the Ciliary process, and the Ciliary Epithelium.
What is the difference between the ciliary body and the ciliary muscle in the human eye?
The ciliary body is a structure in the eye that produces aqueous humor, while the ciliary muscle is a muscle that helps to change the shape of the lens for focusing.
What produce aqueous humor?
The ciliary body and the choroid plexus within the lateral ventricles of the brain produce the aqueous humor in the eye. The aqueous humor nourishes the cornea and the lens, provides intraocular pressure, and removes waste from the anterior chamber of the eye.
Which eye muscles are responsible for accommodation?
The ciliary muscle as well as the ciliary body.
Are there bipolar cells in the ciliary ganglion?
No, bipolar cells are a type of neuron found in the retina of the eye, not in the ciliary ganglion. The ciliary ganglion primarily contains postganglionic parasympathetic neurons that innervate the muscles controlling the shape of the lens in the eye.
What structure surrounding the lens that connects the choroid and it alters the shape of the lens?
The ciliary body, which consists of ciliary muscles and ciliary processes, is the structure that surrounds the lens and connects to the choroid. The ciliary body controls the shape of the lens through the action of the ciliary muscles, which can adjust the thickness of the lens to allow for focusing on objects at different distances.
What muscle controls the shape of the lens?
the lens is held vertically in the eye's interior by suspensory ligaments or more specifically called the ciliary zonule, attached to the ciliary body. so suspensory ligaments is the answer(-:
Are the iris and ciliary muscles located in the front part of the choroid muscles Involuntary?
iris and ciliary muscles
Contains the ciliary muscle of the eye?
The ciliary muscle is located within the eye and is responsible for controlling the shape of the lens, which is crucial for focusing on objects at different distances. Contraction and relaxation of the ciliary muscle affect the thickness of the lens, allowing for accommodation of near and far vision.
What is the medical terminology Combining form meaning ciliary muscle?
cyc- is the combining form meaning ciliary muscle, as in iridocyclitis.
