Abstract
A phylogenetically diverse set of animals are able to orient by the Earth's magnetic field, but how they do so is an open problem. A new study identifies ion channels in the avian inner ear that could detect magnetic fields via induced electric fields.
摘要
一系列具有系统发育多样性的动物能够通过地球磁场定位，但它们是如何做到这一点的仍然是一个悬而未决的问题。一项新的研究确定了鸟类内耳中的离子通道，这些通道可以通过感应电场来检测磁场。
