insect chemoreception

what are sense receptors that sense chemicals in liquids (taste) or air (smell) called?

chemoreceptors

of what origin are chemoreceptors?

epidermal

within the simple olfactory sensillum, typically the what of several multipolar neurons pass through a single scolopale?

dendrites

within the simple olfactory sensillum, after the dendrites of several multipolar neurons pass through a single scolopale, they divide into fine branches and terminate at what?

one (uniporous) or multiple (multiporous) pores

which receptor traps specific molecules, transfers molecules to a recognition site, depolarizes a neural membrane, and produces impulse transmission to the CNS?

chemosensory

what sensory “hair” is associated with taste and is thick-walled with a single terminal pore?

trichoids

what sensory “peg” is associated with smell and is thin-walled and multiporous?

basiconic

what sensory “pegs” associated with smell are sunken within cuticular pits?

coeloconic

what sensory organs associated with smell are round, flat, circular plates perforated by pores?

plate organs

olfactory receptor in insects is known to have what type of design?
