hajszálreceptorok
Hajszálreceptorok, often translated as hair cell receptors or mechanosensory hair cells, are specialized sensory cells found in the inner ear of vertebrates, primarily responsible for hearing and balance. These cells possess a bundle of stereocilia, which are hair-like projections on their apical surface, giving them their name. The movement of these stereocilia, triggered by vibrations or fluid displacement, initiates an electrical signal that is transmitted to the brain, allowing for the perception of sound and spatial orientation.
In the auditory system, hair cells are located within the cochlea. Different regions of the cochlea are
In the vestibular system, responsible for balance and spatial awareness, hair cells are found in the semicircular
