Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of?
Smell
What impulses are transmitted by the sense of smell?
The smell receptors are called olfactory nerves
What would happen if you damaged cranial nerve one?
You may alter or lose your sense of smell.
What senses are affected by the cranial and facial bones that protect and support the sense organs?
Cranial and facial bones affect the following senses: senses of vision, taste, smell, hearing and balance. Protection of the brain is done by cranial while facial forms the mechanical framework of the face.
Describe the origin and pathway of an impulse that results in smell?
Smell is a chemical sense detected by sensory cells called chemoreceptors. When an odorant stimulates the chemoreceptors in the nose that detect smell, they pass on electrical impulses to the brain which then interprets patterns in electrical activity as specific odors and olfactory sensation becomes perception.
Smell impulses are carried by the cranial nerve named the?
Its the first cranial nerve called the olfactory.
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.
Which cranial nerve conduct the sense of smell impulses from nose to the brain?
olfactory
Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of?
Smell
What impulses are transmitted by the sense of smell?
The smell receptors are called olfactory nerves
What are the organs of smell and the cranial nerves connected to them?
The organ of smell is the nose - more specifically it is a patch of epithelium called the olfactory epithelium located in the roof of the nasal cavity. The cranial nerves associated with smell are the olfactory (I) nerves
What is the nerve for smell?
The olfactory nerves are cranial nerves( arise from the brain ). olfactory nerve is the first nerve among the all cranial nerves. olfactory nerves passes sense of smell through nerve impulses( chemical=neurotransmitters, and electrical signals ).
What cranial nerve is used when smelling a flower?
The Olfactory nerve. CN1 Cranial Nerve I, or the first cranial nerve called the Olfactory nerve.
Which cranial nerve has the most anterior origin?
There are 12 pairs of cranial nerves. Of those, the ones with the most anterior origin are called olfactory I. Olfactory I nerves are responsible for the sense of smell.
Which cranial nerve is not involved in taste or smell?
The vestibular (VIII)
What function does the olfactory nerve control?
to transfer nerve impulses to the brain
What cranial nerves conduct impluses for sense of smell for the nose?
olfactory
