What are two classifications of sensory receptors?
There are many different sensory receptors, but olfactory receptors in the nose, and cones and rods in the eyes are two specific types of sensory receptors. Olfactory detects the chemical presence and your brain identifies it as a smell. The rods and cones of the eye process light and color to form images that your brain processes as vision.
When is the best time to breed your Australian Shepherd?
You should NOT breed from your Australian Shepherd until it has had at least three seasons/heat cycles. Many breeders agree that the absolute best age to breed from a female is three years old, however, this is not necessary. You can breed responsibly from a Dog once it has had three seasons.
How many different types of cone receptors are there?
There are five elements of taste buds: salty, sour, bitter, sweet, and umami.
Do moths have a good sense of smell?
Yes. Butterflies and moths have antennae, palps, legs and other parts of the body that are covered in sense receptors used for smell. They are able to detect food and mates from many miles aways.
What breed of dog is good for herding cattle?
Australian Kelpie, Australian Shepherd, border collie, bearded collie, English shepherd, Great Swiss Mountain Dog, Old English Sheepdog, Newfoundland, Australian Cattle dog, many other breeds as well.
How do olfactory receptors work to make smell possible?
The olfactory bulb is actually a tiny lobe of the brain. There are many thousands of different cell types in the olfactory bulb, each with receptors for different chemicals. When these receptors bind to their matching chemical in the air they become excited and trigger a nearby olfactory nerve cell. Details of what happens after this have yet to be worked out, but basically the firing of these nerve cells is analyzed by nerve circuits in the rest of the olfactory bulb then transferred to the brain, where we call it "smell".
Where Australian shepherd originated from?
Despite the misleading name, the Australian Shepherd is not Australian at all, but was developed most likely in the Pyrenees Mountains somewhere between Spain and France, and refined in the U.S. to work as a herding dog on ranches. The breed's principal forebears were most likely Spanish dogs that accompanied the Basque shepherds and herds of fine Merino sheep exported to both America and Australia in the early days of the colonies. At some point it probably crossed with Collie stock. The dog has had many names in the past including the Pastor Dog, Blue Heeler, Spanish Shepherd, Bob-Tail, New Mexican Shepherd, and California Shepherd. Its many talents include, retrieving, herding, watchdog, guarding, police work, narcotics detection, search & rescue, agility, competitive obedience and performing tricks.
How many pages does The Shepherd have?

How many parts of the nose are there?
There are four known parts of the nose,those are: Nostrils~those are openings in our nose Nasal Cavity~passages where we smell pass Scent Receptors~it is found in the upper part and it recognizes what kind of smell is that and bring it to the brain Trachea/Windpipe~it is also a passage but downwards
How many receptors are there in the human brain?
There are 200 pain receptors for every square centimeter in your body!!
Can your sense of smell alter your sense of taste?
Much of what most people consider "taste" actually is smell. Most fruit really tastes pretty similar... if you plug up your nose so you can't smell it, the difference between two fruits of similar acidity and sweetness is mainly in the texture. So, in that sense, yes. There is no direct causal relationship on a physical level because taste and smell are mediated by different types of receptors detecting different types of chemical compounds. Smell is carried from olfactory receptors in the nose to the brain via the Olfactory Nerve (cranial nerve I). Taste is carried from gustatory receptors on the tongue to the brain via the Facial Nerve and the Glossopharyngeal Nerve (cranial nerves VII and IX). However, these signals are integrated extensively in the cerebrum and many connections are made. Therefore, it is plausible that the mere smell of a certain type of food can elicit the memory of the taste of that particular food.
