CNS 8: Smell and taste Flashcards
what is chemoreception
where aree the olfactory receptors
how are receptor neurons of the olfactory system arranged
what happens when an oderant molecule binds its receptor
where do olf neurons send their axons through
what is the pattern of receptors to bulb to cortex
receptors in epi axons through crib plate (cranial nerve 1) synapse onto secondary neurons in olf bulb travel through olf tract go to olf cortex
which cranial nerve is the olfactory nerve
what does olfactory convergence help with
does the bulb project to the thalamus?
where is the olf cortex
where does the olf bulb project to besides the olf cortex
what is olfactiory adaptation
what are pheromones
what is the VNO? do humans have it
what type of cell are taste receptors
how many types of recep cells are in a taste bud
are taste buds all over the tongue
what do type 1 cells sense
what do type 2 cells sense
what do type 3 cells sense
which type of taste cell activates with serotonin
which taste type releases ATP
which G protein is used for sweeet umami and bitter? what kind of pathway does this trigger?
do salt and sour use G proteins? what do they use?
what cranial nerves do taste buds exite
what cranial nerves do TRP receptors excite
