Question

How do we get the smell of an incensed stick? (please describe the entire journey for 10 marks)

Answer 1

when the smell of the incense stick reaches to our nose then the olfactory receptors present in our nose detects it send this information in fore brain in the form of electrical signals. Fore brain interprets this information as the smell of incense stick where it is already stored.

The thinking part of our brain is the forebrain. It has separate areas that are specialized for hearing, smelling, sight etc. The forebrain also has regions that collect information or impulses from various receptors. When the smell of incense stick reaches us, the olfactory receptors present in our nostrils pick it. They send signals to the forbrain. Then the forebrain intreprets it. In this way we can detect the smell of an agarbatti.
