Q

there are blank primary smells

17
Q

olfactory cells adapt blank

18
Q

olfactory cells can blank but blank with age

A

reproduce, decrease

19
Q

combinations of 50 primary smells allow us to distinguish blank of smells

20
Q

taste sense

21
Q

chemoreceptors in structures called blank in taste

A

taste buds

22
Q

taste buds on superior surface of tongue in blank

23
Q

epithelial projections where taste buds lie

24
three types of papillae
filiform, fungiform, circumvallate
25
there are about blank gustatory cells per taste bud
40
26
these replace receptors every 10 to 12 days
basal
27
gustatory cells extend blank called a taste hair into a taste pore
microvilli
28
gustatory pathway uses cranial nerves blank blank and blank
VII, IX, X
29
gustatory pathway has blank fibers that synapse with blank in medulla
afferent, nucleus solitarius
30
gustatory pathway goes to blank and blank
thalamus, cerebral cortex
31
primary tastes
sour, sweet, salt, bitter, water, umami
32
external structure supported elastic cartilage of external ear
auricle
33
canal to middle ear
external acoustic meatus
34
external ear ends at blank
tympanic membrane
35
these make wax in the external acoustic meatus
ceruminous glands
36
there are also blank in the external acoustic meatus
hairs
37
two functions of external ear
protect middle/inner ear, limit microorganism growth, funnel vibrations, deny access to foreign objects
38
middle ear consists of the blank which is an air filled space between external and inner ear
tympanic cavity
39
part of middle ear that can be induced by chewing or yawning
auditory tube
40
auditory tube allows for blank to get in and cause ear infection
microbes
41
most ear infections occur in the blank
middle ear
