Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Neuroanatomy, Cranial Nerve 1 (Olfactory)
Detailed explanation-2: -The primary olfactory nerve function is to help you smell and taste foods. Your olfactory nerve stems from your olfactory epithelium, which comes from your nasal pits. From birth, your olfactory nerve’s origin goes on to your nose and primary palate. The nerves and cells combine to help you smell.
Detailed explanation-3: -Smells are handled by the olfactory bulb, the structure in the front of the brain that sends information to the other areas of the body’s central command for further processing. Odors take a direct route to the limbic system, including the amygdala and the hippocampus, the regions related to emotion and memory.
