The sense of smell, its signalling pathways, and the dichotomy of cilia and microvilli in olfactory sensory cells
Smell is often regarded as an ancillary perception in primates, who seem so dominated by their sense of vision. In this paper, we will portray some aspects of the significance of olfaction to human life and speculate on what evolutionary factors contribute to keeping it alive. We then outline the fu...
