Plants absorb the water from the soil ( through their roots) and then release it back into the atmosphere by transpiration (evaporation from the leaves)
<span>The invention of the microscope led to the development of a much more detailed classification system. Prior to the microscope, we believed the only life was life that we could visually see with the naked eye. However, with the invention of the microscope we were able to see that more life is contained in a small droplet of water than there are people on earth. It was eye-opening!</span>
In order for you to enjoy the smell of a flower, molecules called <u>Odorants </u>from the flower must land on your olfactory epithelium, which lines the inside of the nose.
- When a person breathes in air containing odor molecules, the molecules attach to receptors in the nose and send signals to the brain.
- Odorants interact with primary epithelium olfactory receptors. Olfactory receptors, a type of epithelial cell with cilia, are found in the olfactory epithelium. These receptors receive the sense of smell, which is then sent to the brain.
- The sensory neuron connected to the receptor is activated when an odorant connects with a receptor that detects it.
- Only olfactory stimulus directly communicates with the cerebral cortex; all other sensory information is sent through the thalamus.
- Additionally, it has been suggested that the nasal mucus plays a role in the process of emulsifying hydrophobic odorant molecules, delivering them to receptor sites.
