Olfactory receptor cells are: Group of answer choices -bipolar neurons -anaxonic neurons -multipolar neurons -pseudounipolar neurons

The receptors for olfaction are cilia You are incorrect membrane of the olfactory cribriform plate You are correct bulbs You are correct olfactory You are incorrect cilia into the nasal cavity, where chemicals dissolved in mucus bond to proteins in the plasma You are correct of the ethmoid X neurons that project a You are correct . The axons of the receptors project through the bone to the olfactory which contain the second order neurons of the olfactory pathway.

Identify at least ten (10) sensory receptors in the eyes, ears, nose, tongue and skin in animals (invertebrate & vertebrate groups) and discuss the mechanism of action.

Five different types of taste receptors have been identified in humans.  These are salty, sour, sweet, bitter and umami.  Taste receptors consist of specific types of proteins incorporated into the plasma membrane of taste receptor cells, which are clustered together in structures called taste buds.  All five receptor types are present in each taste bud, which are distributed over most of the tongue surface area.  Olfactory receptors are located in the nasal cavity and consist of several thousand different types, each type specific for a different odorant molecule (ligand).   If you plug your nose, red wine and coffee taste exactly the same.  Explain why this is so.

Question: In about 2 paragraphs, please describe how information is sorted in the brain and where specifically the type of sensory information from the olfactory conduction gets sorted to.

Discuss the location and activation of olfactory receptors and how the brain distinguishes tens of thousands of odours from 1,000 or fewer receptor proteins.

Which of the following statements is true regarding olfactory information? the olfactory receptors are located in the olfactory bulb the glomeruli are organized by connections with specific olfactory receptor types the olfactory tract axons go directly to the orbitofrontal cortex odorants are detected on the cell bodies of the olfactory receptors
