- Where exactly is the olfactory cortex located? Is it located in both the frontal lobe (that receives information from the olfactory bulb) and the temporal lobe (lateral olfactory cortex)? Does it go through the frontal lobe then to the temporal?arrow_forwardWhat brain regions serve the sense of smell and how dothey differ in their olfactory functions?arrow_forwardResearch suggests that newborns are able to discriminate their own language from a foreign language, and their mother's voice from a stranger's voice. In contrast, their visual abilities are much less developed at birth, and develop rapidly over the first few months of life. One explanation for this is: A) Fetuses get equivalent auditory and visual experience before birth, but before they are born they are only able to learn from auditory experience B) Fetuses do not experience sensory information before birth (i.e., they cannot hear, see, smell, etc.) but language develops faster than vision because it is more evolutionarily important C) Fetuses get equivalent auditory and visual experience before birth, but vision requires additional postnatal triggers to be fully activated D) Fetuses can hear many types of sounds prenatally but have limited visual experience until after birth.arrow_forward
- What is the vomeronasal organ and what activity does it perform? Why is its functioning often considered distinct from the sense of smell, but a component of the olfactory system of vertebrates?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements concerning the inner ear is TRUE? Question 3 options: a) The bony labyrinth within the tempoal bone contains spaces for the semicircular canals and the cochlea. b) The fibers of the cochlear nerve are attached to hair cells in the semicircular canals to carry information about movements of the head. c) The frequency of sound waves as defined by their wavelengths are perceived as pitch and are measured in decibels (dB). d) The saccule and utricle are critical sensory receptors for interpreting language, distinct from other sounds.arrow_forwardWhat are the parts and location of all structures that make up olfactory pathway?arrow_forward
- What feature of the human auditory system allows us to localize sound?arrow_forwardWhat are the major similarities and differences in the origin and development of the three major sense organs: olfactory, optic, and auditory?arrow_forwardMany people believe that blind people have supernatural hearing. How would brain plasticity explain how enhanced hearing might result from greater reliance on hearing or from just using auditory information more effectively?arrow_forward
- Regarding auditory physiology, what is the mechanism that generates an action potential and release of neurotransmitter substance? a) pressure waves on cells in the vestibular membrane b) movement of the membrane covering the round window c) movement of the hair cells of the coil member towards the tectorial membrane d) movement of cells in the basement membrane towards the cochleaarrow_forwardDescribe two ways in which the cow eye and the human eye differ?
