Document Summary

Why is this important: the mucus dissolves the chemical compounds that are present in the air. The dissolving of these chemicals into the mucus is important because there are olfactory nerve fibers present in them. Instead the olfactory action potentials first synapse at the olfactory bulb. This electrical information (i. e. , the information that the brain understands the language of action potentials) will then travel to the olfactory cortex, hypothalamus, and the limbic system. If so, what part of the nerve innervates what part of the inner ear: vestibulocochlear nerve. This nerve splits into the vestibular branch and the cochlear branch. The vestibular branch innervates the vestibule and semi-circular canals, while the cochlear branch innervates the cochlea: tell me about the path of the sound waves from the external ear and stop at the structure of the inner ear. Remember: miso: the outer ear will direct sounds from the surrounding environment into the external acoustic (auditory) canal.
