(pl. kinocilia) Biology a cilium which is capable of moving (in contrast to an immobile cilium, called a stereocilium), spec. such a cilium borne singly on each hair cell of the maculæ of the inner ear amid a group of about a hundred stereocilia./ˌkaɪnəˈsɪliəm/ΚΠ
1933 M. Fernán-Núñez tr. S. Ramón y Cajal Histol. x. 148 These cilia [of ciliated epithelium] are completely free and carry out spontaneous vibratory and whip-like movements, both of flexion and extension in the greater number of cases (kinocilia); in other cases, as in the epididymis, they appear immobile (stereocilia).
1956 Acta Oto-Laryngol. Suppl. No. 126. 46 The kinocilium in each cell is closely consistent in structure with the kinocilia that have been observed in the trachea, the fallopian tube, and in a number of unicellular organisms.
1971 New Scientist 29 July 283/1 The kinocilium, an apparently active hair among the passive hairs of each hair cell on the basilar membrane of the ear.
