Anatomy and Physiology of Special Sensory Organs
Sensory organs can be labeled as special sensory structures that permit sight, hearing, odor, and flavor. Sensory structures permitting proprioception, touch, thermal, and pain perception can be classified as more advanced sensory organs. The sensory neu…
Sensory Receptors
The human sensory system is one of the most complex and highly evolved structures, which processes a myriad of incoming messages. This well-coordinated system helps an organism or individual to respond to external stimuli, appropriately. The sensory rece…

Chapter 44.6, Problem 3EQ
Summary Introduction

To determine: The survival or reproductive advantages that may be provided to animals by the ability to sense thousands or more different types of odors.

Introduction: Odor is detected by brain by combination of different activated receptor proteins. Therefore, odor is discriminated by many different olfactory receptor proteins present in the membrane of different olfactory receptor cells.
