星鼻鼹

从星鼻鼹的体感觉具有中央窝的发现可推测，生物在建构高解析度的感觉系统时，这种结构模式是常见的演化解决方案。

The discovery of a somatosensory fovea in the star-nosed mole suggests that this organizational scheme is a general evolutionary solution to constructing a high-resolution sensory system .

和多数研究一样，我们对星鼻鼹感觉系统的观察，引发的问题与解答的问题一样多。

AS OFTEN OCCURS , our observations about the star-nosed mole 's sensory system raised as many questions as they answered .

人类有视觉的中央窝，星鼻鼹则有触觉的中央窝。

Humans have a fovea for sight , and star-nosed moles have a fovea for touch .

正如我们以眼睛扫描视界，星鼻鼹在地道里穿梭时，也持续移动星鼻来扫描「触界」，们用上全部22个附器的艾玛氏器，来快速探测大围的空间。

Just as we scan a visual scene with our eyes , star-nosed moles constantly shift the star to scan tactile scenes as they travel through their tunnels , quickly exploring large areas with the eimer 's organs of all22 appendages .
