There are reasons why you might lose your sense of smell even if you don't have a cold. Taste may not be diminished fully but there might be a decrease in smell with certain medical conditions.
Smell is an important part of taste. without smell you would not taste anything. So if you don't have a sense of smell you won't have the sense of taste eather.
yes they can smell very well and know were they are going if they recognize the smell
Its smell Information goes to olfactory cortex of the frontal lobe without going through the thalamus. Its the only major sense that does not go through the thalamus
The sense of smell can bypass the thalamus, it is only secondarily sent through it when you are analyzing or comparing it to other smells.
food, water, ummm their sense of smell....
it refers to the sense of smell
No, to me the sense of smell is important. If the house was burning down and you in another room if you had no sense of smell you would have to go on your other senses to figure it out. If you didn't have a sense of smell how would you know if you stink, that would suck if your on a date and your date leaves you because you smell "rank." Your sense of taste seems less important to me, if you think about it living without taste isn't bad as you not being able to see, touch, hear, and smell. All in all you need your sense of smell to coexist in everyday life.
