Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of?
Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of smell.
What happens to impulses generated by chemoreceptors in the nose and the mouth?
Impulses generated by chemoreceptors in the nose and mouth are transmitted via sensory neurons to the brain, where they are processed in the olfactory bulb and gustatory cortex. In the olfactory system, these impulses contribute to the sense of smell, while in the gustatory system, they relate to the sense of taste. Together, they help create a comprehensive perception of flavors and aromas, influencing taste preferences and food intake. This sensory information can also trigger reflex responses, such as salivation or gagging.
How does the receptor work in sense of smell?
In the sense of smell, olfactory receptors, located in the nasal cavity, detect airborne chemical molecules known as odorants. When these odorants bind to specific receptors on sensory neurons, they trigger a series of chemical signals that generate action potentials. These electrical impulses are then transmitted to the olfactory bulb in the brain, where they are processed and interpreted as distinct smells. This intricate system allows us to recognize and differentiate a vast array of scents.
Does Neuroglia transmit nerve impulses?
No, neuroglia do not transmit nerve impulses. Neuroglia are support cells of the nervous system that help to nourish, protect, and maintain the environment of neurons. Nerve impulses are transmitted by neurons.
What property of vinegar can you investigate through sense alone?
You can see it - sense of sight; you can smell it - sense of smell.
Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of?
Impulses carried by the olfactory nerve are for the sense of smell.
What function does the olfactory nerve control?
to transfer nerve impulses to the brain
Which cranial nerve conduct the sense of smell impulses from nose to the brain?
olfactory
What cranial nerve carries smell impulses to the brain?
The olfactory nerve, also known as the first cranial nerve, transports impulses for sense of smell to the brain. The olfactory nerve is capable of regeneration.
How are nerve impulses initiated and transmitted?
Nerve impulses are initiated and transmitted according to nerve reactions and messages that get passed along or transmitted along nerve synapses and zones.

Messages in your brain are transmitted by?
nerve impulses.
What type of nerve conducts impulses to the olfactory bulbs?
The olfactory nerve, also known as cranial nerve I, conducts impulses from the nose to the olfactory bulbs in the brain. It is responsible for the sense of smell.
How does the receptor work in sense of smell?
In the sense of smell, olfactory receptors, located in the nasal cavity, detect airborne chemical molecules known as odorants. When these odorants bind to specific receptors on sensory neurons, they trigger a series of chemical signals that generate action potentials.

This intricate system allows us to recognize and differentiate a vast array of scents.
What parts of your body intercepts the nervous impulses sent by the nose as type of smell?
Actually, virtually none. The sense of smell is the only sense that is not processed by the 'relay station' called the thalamus. The olfactory bulb is composed of nerve cells that are stimulated by different chemicals that make up what we call smell. The impulses go directly to the temporal lobe and are processed for association with emotions. There is no 'interceptor' though there is a neurological phenomenon known as adaptation. That is why you can go into an Italian restaurant and after a while you do not smell the garlic.
What is the electric signal that is transmitted throughout the body called?
Nerve impulses.
What is a chronic condition where nerve impulses are not transmitted correctly?
Myasthenia Gravis
