The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Through mechanotransduction, hair cells detect movement in their environment.
- In mammals, the auditory hair cells are located within the spiral organ of Corti on the thin basilar membrane in the cochlea of the inner ear.
- They derive their name from the tufts of stereocilia called hair bundles that protrude from the apical surface of the cell into the fluid-filled cochlear duct.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Hair cell article was read about 26,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 57: each hit it takes is cut by 23 %.
