What is the receptor of the human nose?
The sensory receptors for your nose is the semicircular canals and the cochlea
What are the sensory receptors of the eyes ears nose skin and tongue?
The receptors of the eye are photo receptors, the ear has auditory receptors, the nose has olfactory (smell) receptors, the skin has tactile (touch)and thermo- (temperature) receptors and the tongue has gustatory (taste) receptors.
Where is the olfactory cleft located?
The olfactory cleft is located at the rear of the nose. It consists of two narrow chambers through which air flows.
How can you smell?
A small amount of the substance gets airborne, and then end up in your nose. In the nose you have specialized cells, a bit like the taste buds on your tongue, and they will react to this substance and send a message to your brain.
What nerve that connected in the nose?
the olfactory (smell) and gustatory (taste) sensations pass along the cranial nerves directly to the brain. smell signals travel from the olfactory nerve (made up of groups of nerve fibres ) to a patch of the cortex located in the temporal lobe.

What are the sensory receptors for eyes and nose?
The sensory receptors for the eyes are the optic nerve and the retina. The sensory receptor for the nose are the olfactory nerves.
What the sensory receptors for the eyes and nose?

What is the sensory receptors for smell?
The olfactory receptor is found in the nose.
Where are the olfactory receptors and why is that site poorly suited for their job?
The Olfactory receptors are found in the nose. This is a poor site for its job because it is far from the ground.
What are olfactory receptors?
Cell membranes in the nose that aid in the detection of odors.
What is the relationship between olfactory and gustatory receptors?
Gustatory receptors are part of the sense of taste. They are in your mouth. Olfactory receptors are part of the sense of smell. They are in your nose.
The receptors for the vestibular sense are located?
in the cerebral area
Where in the body can you find chemo-receptors?
You can find chemoreceptors in your tongue (taste buds) and in your olfactory system (your nose).
What is a nose receptor cell?
An olfactory receptor cell is a specialized cell of the mucosal lining of the nose . These specialized cells serve as the receptors for smell.
Where is the olfactory cleft located?
The olfactory cleft is located at the rear of the nose. It consists of two narrow chambers through which air flows.
