| 41. | Generally, in animals, nasal turbinates ( cochae ) are convoluted structures of thin bone or cartilage located in the nasal cavity.
|
| 42. | Foxtails embedded in the nostrils can migrate into the nasal turbinates, causing intense distress, and in rare cases into the brain.
|
| 43. | The olfactory chamber is lined by olfactory epithelium on its upper surface and possesses a number of turbinates to increase the sensory area.
|
| 44. | (Original description by Verrill & Smith ) The small, fragile, white, nacreous shell has a conico-turbinate shape.
|
| 45. | An irregular contortion of a turbinated shell, which common eyes pass unregarded, will ten times treble its price in the imagination of philosophers.
|
| 46. | But Ruben and his colleagues say they've identified a bony ridge where the turbinates attached in 70-million-year-old bird skulls.
|
| 47. | Its nose is made up of more turbinate bones than any other mammal, with between 9 and 11, compared to dogs with 4 to 5.
|
| 48. | The " superior turbinates " are smaller structures, connected to the middle turbinates by nerve-endings, and serve to protect the olfactory bulb.
|
| 49. | The " superior turbinates " are smaller structures, connected to the middle turbinates by nerve-endings, and serve to protect the olfactory bulb.
|
| 50. | The genus is distinct from related genera by a pair of spiral copulatory ducts in the female, which is matched by a turbinated embolus in the male.
