The location of olfactory cilia.
What is the inner surface of the upper nasal canal?
What is convex lens?
The two chambers located in the eye.
What is the anterior and posterior chambers?
Inner ear structures that deal with balance. And sound.
- What are the semicircular ducts and vestibule?
- What is the cochlea?
The way taste receptors cells are activated.
What are chemicals binding to the gustatory hairs on chemoreceptors?
The major sensory station that is bypassed during olfactory signal pathway.
What is the Thalamus?
The structures that cause the pupil to dilate. And to constrict.
- What is the iris?
The two types of hearing loss.
What is conductive loss and sensory neural loss?
2 of the 3 functions of the tympanic membrane.
- What is a boundary between external and middle ear?
- What is connective tissue membrane that vibrates in response to sound?
- What is transfers sound energy to the bones of the middle ear?
A condition where the brain interprets a stimulus for one sense as coming from another?
"The air smells blue."
The area where olfactory nerves and olfactory receptor cells meet and communicate.
What is the Olfactory Bulb?
The three layers of the wall of the eyeball.
What is the fibrous (Sclera + Cornea) tunic, Vascular (choroid) tunic, and nervous (retina) tunic?
The cause of cataracts.
What is clouding of the lens?
The two muscles located in the middle ear that protect the tympanic membrane from loud noises.
What is the tensor tympanic muscle and the stapedius muscle?
The reason why smell and taste disorders are so difficult to diagnose.
What are the several causes for smell and taste disorders with overlapping symptoms?
The structure that separates the Olfactory bulb and the Olfactory epithelium.
The three types of pigments of the cones in the eye.
What is the Eryhtrolabe, Chlorolabe, and Cyanolabe?
The function of our sensory organs reducing their sensitivity to an ongoing stimulus.
What is sensory adaptation?
The relationship between the basilar membrane, hair cells, and the tectorial membrane.
What is the basilar membrane vibrates in response to pressure waves, which causes the hair cells to vibrate against the tectorial membrane.
2 of the 3 nerves that carry taste signals to the brain.
-What is the facial nerve, glossopharyngeal nerve, and vagus nerve?
The reason why our sense of smell is so closely connected to our emotions and memories.
What is the fact that the Olfactory pathway is hard wired directly into our Limbic system?
