MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Scientists have found a previously unrecognized role for tiny hair-like cell structures known as cilia: They help form our sense of touch. Cilia, tail-like projections found on the surface of cells, are perhaps best known as molecular flippers that help cells move around.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cilia are hair-like structures that extend from the cell body into the fluid surrounding the cell. They are found on many types of single-celled eukaryotes, in which they are adapted for moving the cells through their surrounding fluid, for food uptake, and for sensing the environment.
