researchers unlock mystery of a third olfactory system
“It allows animals to detect food and determine that
food’s quality, it provides social information like sexual status about other animals, and it can warn an animal
when a predator is present. Because of the great similarities between humans and animals when it comes to the sense
of smell, the more we learn about the building blocks of the system, the more we will learn about how odors affect
our lives.”
