Description
Olfactory bulb, the special sensory organ of smell, located above the anterior aspect of the nasal cavity on the ethmoid bone. Nerve extensions of the bulb protrude through the approximately twenty openings in the bone to the nasal cavities, where they receive chemical information from circulating odor molecules and convey the signals to the cerebral cortex to be processed.
