Answer:

B. olfactory information is not integrated in the thalamus prior to processing in the cortex, and the two systems are primarily processed in opposite hemispheres.

Explanation:

The thalamus is the main source of sensory information to the primary sensory cortex except for the sense of smell. The olfactory information from the sensory neurons needs to pass through the thalamus in order to reach the primary sensory cortex. Moreover, different thalamic nuclei, i.e., different groups of packed neuronal cell bodies that form the thalamus, have been involved in language. A bilateral thalamic activation (with left greater than right thalamic activation), as well as the activation of cortical regions associated with the language, is observed during tasks related to language processing. Language information is processed within the left hemisphere, while the olfactory information is processed in the olfactory bulb which is located on the inferior (bottom) side of the cerebral hemispheres.

What is a secure chemical landfill? A. a landfill in an area of nonporous bedrock B. a biological treatment plant for liquid was
natima [27]

The correct answer is option A, that is, a landfill in the region of nonporous bedrock.  

A permanent waste disposal facility where the wastes are put into the ground and covered with a layer of plastic, soil, or both is known a landfill. A secure chemical landfill refers to a landfill developed in the region of nonporous bedrock.

A secure chemical landfill is a prudently engineered depression in the ground or constructed on the top of the ground, signifying a football stadium into which wastes are dumped. The objective is to inhibit any water-related or hydraulic association between the surrounding environment and the wastes, mainly groundwater.
