Question

Which of the following have a strong sense of smell?

• A. Dog
• B. Cat
• C. Mosquitoes
• D. Both A and C

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both A and C

1. Dogs use their sense of smell, to find and follow a track. Dogs have a highly sensitive olfactory system superior to humans.
2. Mosquitoes seek the blood of humans as food hence they are stimulated by various factors especially smell.

• Initially, they're attracted by the carbon dioxide we exhale. Body heat is probably important too, but once the mosquito gets closer, she will respond to the smell of a potential blood source's skin.
• Hence Dog and Mosquitoes have a strong sense of smell.
• So, the correct answer is 'Both A and C'.
