What Type of Chemoreceptor is Responsible for Our Sense of Smell

Question

What type of chemoreceptor is responsible for our sense of smell?
A) static equilibrium receptor
B) olfactory receptor
C) dynamic equilibrium receptor
D) photoreceptor

Accepted Answer

The olfactory receptor is responsible for our sense of smell. It is located in the nasal cavity and responds to different types of odor molecules. Static equilibrium receptors are responsible for detecting changes in the position of the head, dynamic equilibrium receptors are responsible for detecting changes in acceleration and deceleration, and photoreceptors are responsible for vision.
