Biol 373 Unit 3b || with Errorless Answers.
Olfaction (smell) correct answers Most primal sense. 1 of 2 chemoreception senses
Olfactory Neurons correct answers Only detector cells to be neurons. By passing thalamus and
going straight to brain.
Olfactory Neurons cross the midline correct answers False. They go directly to brain
olfactory bulb correct answers Where the olfactory nerve synapses.
olfactory cortex correct answers most posterior in animal's brain
what are the shape of olfactory neurons? correct answers they are true bipolar
what kind of cilia is found in the olfactory pathway? correct answers Non motile cilia
How many times are olfactory receptor neurons replaced? correct answers every 60 days
what type of receptors are odorant proteins? correct answers GPCRs one of the largest families in
vertebrates
There are 100s of different types of receptors. correct answers False. There are 1000s.
How many types of odorant receptor protein does each olfactory neuron express? correct
answers 1
how many odorant can each receptor recognize? correct answers 1+
, How many receptor can each odorant stimulate? correct answers more than 1.
gustation (taste) correct answers 1 of two chemoreceptor senses. Second most primal sense.
What are the five basic tastes? correct answers sweet, sour, salty, bitter, umami
taste receptor cells are neurons correct answers False. They are non-neural epithelial cells
how often is the turn over rate of taste receptor cells? correct answers 10 days
Where are taste receptors located? correct answers taste buds
why is it difficult to say that taste receptor cells synapse correct answers The direction is
backwards
what is the signal molecule produced in gustation? correct answers ATP
what kind of junction joins taste receptor cells correct answers tight junction
what kind of receptors do sweet, umami, and bitter ligands bind to? correct answers GPCRs
Transduction of sour taste is similar to sweet. correct answers False. Not as simple. calcium is
present
Science knows little on how sodium is detected. correct answers true
