Small polar molecules have a much stronger smell than non-polar molecules. This could be because the smell receptors in our nose are made of polar proteins or it could be because polar molecules are able to dissolve in the mucus membrane of our noses. Whatever the reason, polarity has a large affect on smell.

How does a drawing of polarity water and the bond polarities make a major contribution to the overall molecular polarity look?
The polarity is a vector quantity. The resultant of the polarity of bonds determines the polarity of the molecule. In CO2 there is polarity between the two C-O but the polarity is equal and opposite in direction so CO2 doesn't have polarity. If the polarity of bonds is not cancelled then the polarity remains in the molecule.
Is unequal sharing of electrons acidic basic or polarity?
Polarity
What is the effect of molecular polarity on behavior?
Explain the effect of molecular polarity on behaviour.
What is the molecular polarity for s8?
A sulfur molecule has zero polarity.
How does the polarity of a substance affect how far it travels up the chalk?
because there is polarity of molecules in there
Is your sense of taste and smell affected by your gender?

What sense is not affected by damage to the thalamus?
smell
Is your sense of taste affected by your sense of smell?
no
When the Earth's polarity is reversed is the Coriolis effect also reversed?
No. The reversal of polarity is a reversal of Earth's magnetic poles. The Corilolis effect is a direct consequence of Earth's rotation and is not affected by the magnetic field.
Is the cat or the dog most affected by smell?
cat
What is the physiological process that would be affected by the lack of smell?
The sense of taste would be affected by the lack of smell. The sense of taste influences food preferences and food choices.
How can you tell if food has been affected by spoilage microorganisms?
change in the colour and smell
What are two examples of polarity?
-- negative polarity -- positive polarity

How might a shark's hunting be affected if it were unable to smell?
it probably would die because they rely so much on their sense of smell to find food

What problems are there with reverse polarity?
Reversing polarity ,changes the rotation of the device you are changing polarity on.
