Transduction Process For OLFACTORY

Question 1

First step in Transduction of Olfactory stimulus

Answer 1

1. Odorant molecules bind to olfactory binding proteins

Question 2

2nd step?

If the first is
1. Odorant molecules bind to olfactory binding proteins

Answer 2

2. The odurant receptor detects the signal. It is also connected to a G-protein.

Question 3

3rd step in Transduction of Olfactory Stimulus?

Answer 3

3. G-protein activation stimulater AdenylyI Cyclase

Question 4

4th step

If the 3rd step iS :

3. G-protein activation stimulater AdenylyI Cyclase

Answer 4

4. Adenylyl cyclase will convert ATp to cAmp

Question 5

For the fifth in the transduction process

Answer 5

cAMP opens calcium channels allowing calcium ions influx into the olfactory cell.

Question 6

The sixth step of Transduction of Olfactory Stimulus

Answer 6

Calcium triggers the opening of chloride channels, causing cl- to exit the olfactory Cell.

Question 7

7th Step:

if 6th step is:
Calcium triggers the opening of chloride channels, causing cl- to exit the olfactory Cell.

Answer 7

7.) Causes depolarization -90 MV to +35 MV

Question 8

8th step and last is:

Answer 8

The electrical impulse then travels through Olfactory system to the CraniaI nerve .
