Components
(generated)
- Component items*:
- Nose sensory data (nose-sensory-data)
- Nose - volatile (nose-volatile -> LPC.PN.SG.MOE): Sensing smells - volatile odorants
- Nose - nonvolatile (nose-nonvolatile -> LPC.PN.SG.VNO): Sensing smells - non-volatile pheromones
- Nose - proprioceptors (nose-proprioceptors -> LPC.MM.MSTR): proprioception
- Nose - touch receptors (nose-somatic -> LPC.PN.SG.TRG): touch
- Nose - visceral nodose receptors (nose-visceral-vagus -> LPC.PN.SG.NOD): visceral sensations
- Nose - visceral pharynx receptors (nose-visceral-pharynx -> LPC.PN.SG.PET): visceral sensations
- Ear sensory control (nose-sensory-control)
- [- nasal glands] (LAC.PN.PSYM.SPG -> nose-nasal-glands): smelling control and moisturing
- Nose move muscles (nose-muscles): constricts nostrils, lower alar pars and helps to wrinkle nose
- [- depressor septi nasi muscle] (LPC.HP.FCM -> nose-depressor-septi-nasi): depression of nasal septum
- [- levator labii superioris alaeque nasi muscle] (LPC.HP.FCM -> nose-levator-labii-superioris-alaeque-nasi): dilates the nostril; elevates the upper lip and wing of the nose
- [- nasalis muscle] (LPC.HP.FCM -> nose-nasalis): compresses bridge, depresses tip of nose, elevates corners of nostrils
- [- salpingopharyngeus muscle] (LPC.HM.AMB -> nose-salpingopharyngeus): raise the nasopharynx
