Cell polarity: having and making sense of direction—on the evolutionary significance of the primary cilium/centrosome organ in Metazoa

Cell-autonomous polarity in Metazoans is evolutionarily conserved. I assume that permanent polarity in unicellular eukaryotes is required for cell motion and sensory reception, integration of these two activities being an evolutionarily constrained function. Metazoans are unique in making cohesive m...
