Special senses- Smell -receptor, pathway, Taste- taste -buds, pathway?

Smell:
- Receptor: Olfactory receptors located in the olfactory epithelium in the nasal cavity.
- Pathway: When odor molecules enter the nasal cavity, they bind to specific olfactory receptors. These receptors then send signals to the olfactory bulb, which is located at the base of the brain. From the olfactory bulb, the signals are transmitted to the olfactory cortex and other brain regions involved in processing smell.

Taste:
- Receptor: Taste buds, which are located on the tongue, soft palate, and throat.
- Pathway: When we eat or drink, molecules from the food or drink interact with the taste buds. Taste buds contain specialized cells called gustatory cells, which have taste receptors. These receptors detect different taste qualities such as sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami. The signals from the taste buds are then transmitted via cranial nerves to the gustatory cortex in the brain, where the taste sensations are processed.
