What is the function of a cribiform plate?
Small unmyelinated axons from olfactory receptor bipolar neurons (originating in the olfactory epithelium of the nasal cavity) pass through small holes in the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone. These small nerves are primary sensory neurons that synapse with the olfactory bulb of Cranial Nerve 1 (olfactory nerve) which lies on top of the cribriform plate. These olfactory receptor neurons bind to different types of odorant molecules and, depending on the type of receptor and odorant molecule, fire action potentials which are transmitted to the brain and perceived as recognizable odors. Specifically these are called the Fila Olfactoria.
What is smallest unit of compound?
molecules Why Molecules? Did u tell that? Please improve this answer because I want to know why.
If a water molecule is neutral why does it attract polar molecules?
A water molecule is polar, which is why it attracts other polar molecules.
How many monosaccharide molecules are needed to form a maltose molecule?
It takes 2 monosaccharide molecules to form a maltose molecule. Those are 2 glucose molecules. So 2 glucose molecules join together to make 1 maltose molecule.
What are two types of detergent molecule?
The most probable type of a molecules in the detergents is the hydrocarbon molecules and the sodium molecules. The sodium molecules binds to water while the hydrocarbon molecule binds to grease.
Are there molecules in molecules?
A molecule in a molecule is the smallest a molecule can be ( in easier terms)
What does it means that a molecule is activated?
You may be talking about the activated complex, which is a kind of unstable "molecule" that is a transition state between the products and the reactants in a reaction.
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 passes through cribiform plate?

Is a molecule equivalent to a molecule?
Molecules are not always equivalent to molecules, as some molecules have more atoms than other molecules, and other molecules have different kinds of atoms than other molecules.
Atoms bonded together to form a chemical unit are called?
Molecules
What molecule can be formed with atoms removed from the two glucose molecules?
Water (H2O) molecules, one on either side of the molecule.
Describes a molecule with opposite charges on opposite ends?
A molecule with opposite charges at opposite ends is said to be a polar molecule. All such molecules are water soluble.
What is an atom or molecule called when involved in a chemical reaction?
Before the reaction, the atoms and molecules are called reagents. After the reaction, the resulting atoms and molecules are called products.As a reaction occurs, the reagents may form an activated complex and almost immediately decay into products.
What is smallest unit of compound?
molecules Why Molecules? Did u tell that? Please improve this answer because I want to know why.
Is carbon dioxide CO2 a molecule and is oxygen a molecule too?
They are both made out of molecules: Carbon dioxide = CO2-molecules, Oxygen = O2-molecules.
