Question

_______ is the biochemical phenomenon, occurring after continual exposure to an odorant, whereby receptors stop responding to an odorant and detection ceases.

Answer 1

Receptor adaptation  is the biochemical phenomenon, occurring after continual exposure to an odorant, whereby receptors stop responding to an odorant and detection ceases.

Receptor adaptation which occur when a sensory neuron has stopped sending impulses even through the original stimulus is still present.The biochemical phenomenon is occur after continuous exposure to an odorant, the receptor stop responding to the odorant and detection ceases.

Odorants dissolve in the mucus and bind to receptors. Mitral cells relay signals to the olfactory bulbs. That transducer signals to the hypothalamus.Receptor is decline of electric responses of receptor neuron over time in spite of the continued presence of appropriated stimulus of constant strength.
