Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of smell.
Smell impulses are carried by the cranial nerve called the olfactory nerve (cranial nerve I). It is responsible for transmitting information about odors from the nose to the brain.
Sensory information from the eyes is carried to the brain by the optic nerve, which is composed of ganglion cell axons. These fibers transmit visual signals from the retina, where light is converted into neural impulses, to the visual cortex in the brain for processing.
The most rapid nerve impulses are carried by myelinated nerve fibers, which have a fatty sheath called myelin that enables faster signal transmission. These fast nerve impulses are crucial for quick reflex actions and communication between different parts of the body. Unmyelinated fibers are slower in transmitting nerve impulses compared to myelinated fibers.
Sensory receptors detect stimuli and transmit that information to the integrating center in the nervous system, such as the brain or spinal cord. The integrating center processes the incoming signals and coordinates an appropriate response, which is then carried out by the effector organs.
neurotransmitter carries the nerve impulses from neuron to neuron across a synapse
Impulses carried to the heart by fibers that secrete acetylcholine are typically from the parasympathetic nervous system. Acetylcholine acts on specific receptors in the heart to slow the heart rate. This helps regulate the heart's activity and maintain balance in the autonomic nervous system.

The impulses from the ear are carried to the brain by the auditory nerve, also known as the eighth cranial nerve or vestibulocochlear nerve. This nerve is responsible for transmitting sound and balance information from the inner ear to the brainstem.
Electrical impulses of the brain are the nervous impulses that the nervous system uses to control body functions. These impulses may be relayed within the brain, or may be carried to the peripheral nervous system.
Sensory receptors detect stimuli and transmit that information to the integrating center in the nervous system, such as the brain or spinal cord. The integrating center processes the incoming signals and coordinates an appropriate response, which is then carried out by the effector organs.
