Frage
Tick the correct cells that are in the common mammalian nose:
Antworten
  • Olfactory receptor cells.
  • Supporting cells.
  • Basal cells.
  • Epithelium cells.

Frage 7

Frage
What is the role of the supporting cells?
Antworten
  • Physical support, nourishment and electrical insulation for olfactory receptor cells.
  • To undergo mitosis to replace olfactory receptor cells.
  • To produce mucus that is used to dissolve odour molecules so that transduction may occur.

Frage 8

Frage
What is the role of the basal stem cells?
Antworten
  • Physical support, nourishment and electrical insulation for olfactory receptor cells.
  • To undergo mitosis to replace olfactory receptor cells.
  • To produce mucus that is used to dissolve odour molecules so that transduction may occur.

Frage 9

Frage
What is the role of the olfactory glands?
Antworten
  • Physical support, nourishment and electrical insulation for olfactory receptor cells.
  • To undergo mitosis to replace olfactory receptor cells.
  • To produce mucus that is used to dissolve odour molecules so that transduction may occur.

Frage 10

Frage
What is another name for the olfactory cilia?
Antworten
  • Olfactory hairs.
  • Olfactory neurons.
  • Olfactory basal membrane.

Frage 11

Frage
Chemicals that have an odour that stimulate the olfactory hairs are called?
Antworten
  • Odourants.
  • Odouras chemicals.
  • Odouras gasses.

Frage 12

Frage
Which of these are true of the olfactory nerve?
Antworten
  • Formed from small unmyelinated axons.
  • By the first cranial nerve.
  • Have slow conduction velocity and support provided by Schwann cells.
  • Part of the ethmoid bone.
  • Contain multiple small foramina through which the olfactory nerve fibres transverse.

  • Contain multiple small foramina through which the olfactory nerve fibres transverse.
  • Have slow conduction velocity and support provided by Schwann cells.
  • By the first cranial nerve.

Frage 14

Frage
Mitral cells are a second order neurons contracted by olfactory nerve fibres at glomerular layer of the bulb, is it true that their axons project to higher brain areas including the olfactory cortex or not?
Antworten
  • True
  • False
