What else can I help you with?
What are part of the brain is concerned with olfaction?
The olfactory bulb and the olfactory cortex, located in the temporal lobe of the brain, are primarily responsible for processing smell information. The olfactory bulb receives sensory input from the nose and sends signals to the olfactory cortex for further processing and interpretation of smells.
Where the cerebral interpretation of smell occurs?
The cerebral interpretation of smell occurs in the olfactory bulb and the olfactory cortex, which are parts of the brain located in the frontal lobe. These regions process sensory information related to smell and help to identify and interpret various odors.
Is it true the nerve from the brain receives information about the environment and sends it to the brain?
Information about the environment comes from the senses to the brain via the nervous system.
What and how many odours can be detected by the olfactory system?
The human olfactory system can detect approximately one trillion different odors, thanks to the complex arrangement of olfactory receptors in the nasal cavity. These receptors interact with various odor molecules, allowing us to perceive a vast range of scents. The olfactory bulb processes these signals and sends them to the brain, enabling us to identify and differentiate between numerous smells. Factors such as genetics and environmental exposure can influence individual odor perception.
What system sends chemicals through your body?
Hormone.
What sends messages from the nose to the brain?
Olfactory Nerve

What does the spinalcord do?
it sends messages to the brain for the nervous system it is like the information highway of the nervous system
What is the nerve that sends impulses from the nose to the brain?
Quite a few, depending on what sensation you're interested in, but the cribiform plate is actually a part of the brain (the olfactory lobe), the only part of the brain that connects to the outside world directly.
Why can you smell?
We have an olfactory bulb at the base of our brain that has nerve receptors leading into our nasal cavity. When certain particles come in contact with these receptors, the olfactory bulb sends its message to another part of the brain in the limbic region.
What systems sends mesages to the brain?
your nervous system sends messages to your brain
Which part of the brain is responsible for smelling?
The olfactory bulb, located in the front of the brain, is primarily responsible for the sense of smell. It processes information from olfactory receptors in the nose and helps identify different odors.
Describe the functions carried out by the lobes in the cerebral hemisphere?
Receives the messages from the Olfactory Lobe and sends them to the main part of the brain
What part of the brain controls the sense of smell?
The sense of smell is primarily controlled by the olfactory bulb, which is located in the brain. This area processes odor information received by sensory cells in the nose and sends signals to other parts of the brain for further interpretation.
Why do certain smells instantly evoke specific memories or feelings?
The olfactory nerves in the nose send information on the scent to the primary olfactory cortex of the brain. the cortex is linked to the amygdala and hippocampus of hte limbic system. The amygdala is involved in emotion. It projects fibres into the hippocampus. The hippocampus is involved in long-term memory. This is why smells evoke memories
