question 10

Multiple Choice

Why are we able to differentiate tastes and smells?

• A)The action potentials initiated by taste receptors are transmitted to a separate region of the brain than those initiated by receptors for smell.
• B)The sensory region of the cerebral cortex distinguishes something we taste from something we smell by the difference in the action potential.
• C)The brain distinguishes between taste, arising from interoreceptors, from smell arising from exteroreceptors.
• D)Because we are able to see what we are tasting, the brain uses this information to distinguish taste from smell.
• E)Taste receptors are able to detect fewer molecules of the stimulus, which means these receptors will initiate a receptor potential before smell receptors do.
