Particles play a crucial role in the sense of smell as they are responsible for carrying odor molecules. When substances release volatile compounds, these tiny particles enter the air and can be inhaled through the nose. Once inside, odor molecules bind to olfactory receptors in the nasal cavity, triggering signals to the brain that interpret the specific scent. Thus, the interaction between airborne particles and our olfactory system enables us to perceive different smells.

If a fish's blood is still within their bodies - a Shark's smell receptors cannot pick up particles from the blood in order to smell it.
