Descriptor English: Chemoreceptor Cells
Descriptor Spanish: Células Quimiorreceptoras
Descriptor células quimiorreceptoras
Scope note: Células especializadas en detectar sustancias químicas y transmitir esa información hacia el sistema nervioso. Las células quimiorreceptoras pueden percibir estímulos externos como el GUSTO y el OLFATO, o estímulos internos como las concentraciones de OXÍGENO y de DIÓXIDO DE CARBONO en la sangre.
