|
| 14. | The nose has another sensory structure, called the vomeronasal organ, which is specialized for detecting pheromones.
|
| 15. | These pheromones are detected by the vomeronasal organ in the septum of the female s nose.
|
| 16. | Dulac's findings are based on tests with a mouse breed whose vomeronasal organ had been genetically inactivated.
|
| 17. | Naphthalene interferes with the vomeronasal organ of snakes, thereby disrupting their olfactory system in a reversible manner.
|
| 18. | Scientists have long wondered whether human behavior, too, is influenced by pheromones, because people possess a vomeronasal organ.
|
| 19. | They smell by using their forked tongues to collect airborne particles, then passing them to the vomeronasal organ.
|
| 20. | The vomeronasal organ is located at the back of the septum and has a role in pheromone detection.
