Where are the receptors of smell located at in the nasal passages?
In the olfactory epithelium, which is in turn located high up in the nasal cavity. Additionally, some odor receptors are present in human sperm, which allow for positive chemotaxis.
What cells provide for the sense of smell?
Olfactory hair cells
Why are olfactory bulbs on humans smaller than on sheep?
Olfactory bulbs are smaller in human's because sheep's rely on their sense of smell more than humans do. Where as human's rely on seeing more then smell.
Where are bipolar amacrine and ganglion cells located?
Retinal Cells, Olfactory epithelium Cells
What is sensorys receptor for smell?
the receptor cells in the olfactory membrane.....
What is the part of my nose that holds your olfactory cells?
The olfactory epithelium contains 10 million olfactory cells. Since you have two nostrils, you have a total of 20 million smell cells!

Where is the olfactory epithelium found?
The olfactory epithelium occupies an area of about 5 cm2 in the roof of the nasal cavity. The specialized receptor cells in the olfactory epithelium are surrounded by supporting cells, non-sensory epithelial cells. The olfactory receptor cells are bipolar neurons whose olfactory cilia extend outward from the epithelium.
What type of nerve cells receives stimuli for the sense of small?
Olfactory nerves, definetly. We're studying this currently in my grade.

Where are the olfactory cells found?
Smelling
These cells provide physical support nurshment and electrical insulation for olfatory receptors cells?
These cells are called sustentacular cells or supporting cells. They surround and support the olfactory receptor cells in the olfactory epithelium. They provide physical support, nourishment, and electrical insulation to the olfactory receptor cells, helping to maintain their function.
In what cells does a smell impulse begin?
In the olfactory nerves of the nose
How many odor detecting cells?
The olfactory bulb can detect the smell of odor particles.
What are the nerve cells that react to gases?
Olfactory nerve cells
Mitral cells synapse with?
granule cells in olfactory cortex
What cells provide for the sense of smell?
Olfactory hair cells
