How do olfactory receptors send axons through the cribriform plate?
Olfactory receptor neurons extend axons through tiny channels in the cribriform plate called olfactory foramina. These axons then travel through the olfactory nerve to the olfactory bulb in the brain, where they synapse with other neurons to transmit smell signals. The olfactory foramina allow for the passage of these axons while protecting the brain from potential pathogens or irritants in the nasal cavity.
What part of the brain controls smell?
FRONTAL LOBE
What cranial nerve doesn't pass through the thalamus?
CN 1 does not pass thru, from what I read. It's the only one.
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.
Why does inhaling deeply and slowly through the nose help to identify an odor?
Inhaling deeply and slowly through the nose allows more odor molecules to reach the olfactory receptors in the nose, increasing the chance of detecting a scent. This method also helps to properly distribute the scent across the olfactory epithelium, where the receptors are located, enhancing our ability to identify and analyze the odor.
Why antrum gastrics?
Because you stimulate your self through physical contact.
Why do you need the olfactory?
The olfactory system is important for detecting and perceiving smells in our environment. It plays a crucial role in our sense of taste, helps us identify potentially dangerous odors, and also contributes to emotional experiences and memories through our sense of smell. Overall, the olfactory system enhances our sensory perception and ability to interact with our surroundings.

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.
Why does inhaling deeply and slowly through the nose help identify an odor?
Because you give the olfactory nerves more time to identify the aroma.

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 structures are the receptors for the sense of smell?
The receptors that actually bind with the molecules that we smell are called Olfactory receptor neurons. They pass their signal through the caribform plate, then down the olfactory nerve, and finally to the olfactory bulb in the brain.
Where is the olfactory region located?
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.
