The olfactory is the "sense of smell through your nose. The cerebrum part of the brain, more specifically, the temporal lobe, is where the olfactory/sense of smell is. That is also the part of that controls hearing.

Where is the secondary olfactory cortex located in the brain?
The olfactory cortex is located within the medial temporal lobes.
What are smell receptors called?
They are called the olfactory cilia (microscopic hairs) located in the olfactory epithelium.
Are the relay stations for the olfactory pathways located in the hypothalamus?
True
The olfactory nerves Are located in the roof of the nasal cavity?
YUP
Receptors for the sense of smell are located within the?
the olfactory bulb is located above the cribriform plate
Where are olfactory receptors located?
In vertebrates the olfactory receptors are located in the cilia of the olfactory sensory neurons. In insects olfactory receptors are located on the antennae and other chemo sensory organs.
Where is the secondary olfactory cortex located in the brain?
The olfactory cortex is located within the medial temporal lobes.
Where is the olfactory cleft located?
The olfactory cleft is located at the rear of the nose. It consists of two narrow chambers through which air flows.
What are smell receptors called?
They are called the olfactory cilia (microscopic hairs) located in the olfactory epithelium.
Where is the olfactory nerve located?
Since olfactory refers to the sense of smell, the olfactory nerve would be located in the nose, or nasal cavity.
Where are the olfactory receptors located?
Nasal Cavity
What is the portion of the nasal cavity that is responsible for detecting smells?
Olfactory region
What portion of the nasal cavity is responsible for detecting smell?
olfactory region
A fracture of the ethmoid bone could result in damage to which cranial nerve?
Olfactory nerve. Olfactory nerve fibers arise from olfactory receptor cells located in olfactory epithelium of nasal cavity and pass through cribriform plate of ethmoid bone to synapse in olfactory bulb.

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 lobe of the cerebrum is the olfactory cortex located?
temporal lobe
