Antenna vs. Transmitter

(Zoology) One of the paired, flexible, segmented sensory appendages on the head of an insect, myriapod, or crustacean functioning primarily as an organ of touch.

One that transmits

Something likened to this sensory appendage, as in function or form

An electronic device that generates and amplifies a carrier wave, modulates it with a meaningful signal derived from speech or other sources, and radiates the resulting signal from an antenna.

A structure in a photosynthetic organism containing pigment molecules that absorb light energy and transfer it to a reaction center composed of proteins and pigments, where the light energy is converted into chemical energy.

The portion of a telephone that converts the incident sounds into electrical impulses that are conveyed to a remote receiver.

Pl. an·ten·nas A metallic apparatus for sending or receiving electromagnetic waves such as radio waves.

A telegraphic sending instrument.

A feeler organ on the head of an insect, crab, or other animal. 17

A neurotransmitter.

An apparatus to receive or transmit electromagnetic waves and convert respectively to or from an electrical signal.

One who or that which transmits something (in all senses).

(figurative) The faculty of intuitive astuteness.

An electronic device that generates and amplifies a carrier wave, modulates it with a meaningful signal derived from speech, music, TV or other sources, and broadcasts the resulting signal from an antenna.

(nautical) The spar to which a lateen sail is attached, which is then hoisted up the mast.

Someone who transmits a message;

A movable, articulated organ of sensation, attached to the heads of insects and Crustacea. There are two in the former, and usually four in the latter. They are used as organs of touch, and in some species of Crustacea the cavity of the ear is situated near the basal joint. In insects, they are popularly called horns, and also feelers. The term in also applied to similar organs on the heads of other arthropods and of annelids.

Any agent (person or animal or microorganism) that carries and transmits a disease;

A metallic device, variously shaped, designed for the purpose of either transmitting or receiving radio waves, as for radio or television broadcasting, or for transmitting communication signals. Some types are: whip antenna, antenna tower, horn antenna, dish antenna, directional antenna and rabbit ears. See transmitter, receiver.

Set used to broadcast radio or tv signals

An electrical device that sends or receives radio or television signals

Sensitivity similar to that of a receptor organ;

One of a pair of mobile appendages on the head of e.g. insects and crustaceans; typically sensitive to touch and taste
