Answer:

1. You will be unable to smell

3. Your olfactory receptor cells will no longer be able to respond  to molecules trapped in the mucus.

Explanation:

The Olfactory receptors are the receptors present in the olfactory neurons which detect different odorants or smell.

The olfactory receptors are embedded in the epithelium or mucous lining of the nose in which one extension of the cell body reaches the epithelium surface and branches into cilia like structures which sense the odour.

If the axons of the olfactory cells are broken then the cells will not be able to respond to the molecules trapped in the mucus and thus no detection of odour. The signal will not be generated in response and thus will not be sent to the brain. Thus, the person will not be able to smell.

Thus, Options-1 and 3 are correct.

Which level of consumer has access to the smallest supply of energy?
Klio2033 [76]
The shorter the food chain, the larger amount of energy obtained. 
Hence, the consumer furthest away from the producer obtains the least energy. 
The quaternary consumer is furthest away. Most energy is lost by then. Hence, it has access to the smallest supply of energy.
