Cilia are abundant, while flagella are fewer, aiding in functions such as sperm movement and clearing mucus in respiratory systems. Notably, almost all mammalian cells have a primary cilium that is important for sensory functions, with defects linked to diseases like polycystic kidney disease.

Mechanoreceptors detect touch and body movement, while hearing involves structures like the eardrum. Vision is characterized in arthropods through compound eyes. Smell uses olfactory chemoreceptors in the nasal cavity. Additionally, some fish have electric organs for sensing electrical fields, and magnetoreceptors help animals navigate by detecting the Earth's magnetic field.

This interaction activates a signaling pathway that generates action potentials, allowing the brain to identify odors. Each olfactory neuron expresses one receptor gene, enabling the detection of up to a trillion distinct scents through combinatorial receptor activation patterns.
