In what cells does a smell impulse begin?
In the olfactory nerves of the nose
Where the cerebral interpretation of smell occurs?
The olfactory bulb, at the top of the nasal sinus, is connected to the first cranial nerve. It then sends the impulse to the temporal lobes of the brain to be interpreted as smell.
Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of?
Smell
Smell impulses are carried by the cranial nerve called the?
The olfactory nerve, or 1st cranial nerve.
Where is the secondary olfactory cortex located in the brain?
The olfactory cortex is located within the medial temporal lobes.
In what cells does a smell impulse begin?
In the olfactory nerves of the nose
Describe the functions carried out by the lobes in the cerebral hemisphere?
Receives the messages from the Olfactory Lobe and sends them to the main part of the brain
Where the cerebral interpretation of smell occurs?
The olfactory bulb, at the top of the nasal sinus, is connected to the first cranial nerve. It then sends the impulse to the temporal lobes of the brain to be interpreted as smell.
What things must happen in order that a substance can be smelled?
For a human to smell a substance, The substance must be volatile, and molecules of it must be airborne and drift near the nose. The substance must come in contact with an olfactory nerve-ending in the nose. The olfactory nerve must react, by excitation, to the molecule, sending an electrical impulse to the brain. The brain must receive and process olfactory (smell) nerve signals.
What is the function of olfactory?
The olfactory lobes are parts of the human brain involved in the perception of smell.
Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of?
Smell
How does the sense of smell communicate with the brain?
Olfactory cells act as sensors Transmit signals via the nervous system to the brain
Smell impulses are carried by the cranial nerve called the?
The olfactory nerve, or 1st cranial nerve.
What cranial nerve carries smell impulses to the brain?
The olfactory nerve, also known as the first cranial nerve, transports impulses for sense of smell to the brain. The olfactory nerve is capable of regeneration.
Where is the secondary olfactory cortex located in the brain?
The olfactory cortex is located within the medial temporal lobes.
Function of olfactory tract?
The olfactory tract is a bundle of axons connecting the mitral and tufted cells of the olfactory bulb to several target regions in the brain.
Where is the primary olfactory cortex in the brain?
In the posterior pole of the Occipital cortex.
