No one knows what actually causes olfactory receptors to react - it could be a chemical molecule's shape or size or electrical charge. The electrical activity produced in these hair cells is transmitted to the olfactory bulb.

During olfactory development axons from the sensory epithelium migrate to the olfactory bulb and gradually establish connections with targeted glomeruli (Key and St John, 2002 ). The spatial distribution of these connections form the basis of a topographical mapping of odorant receptors onto the olfactory bulb (Vassar...

The lateral border of the tubercle is formed by an important structure, the rhinal fissure, which is found even in lissence­phalic brains.  The rhinal fissure separates olfactory and limbic structures medially from the more recently evolved neocortex (isocortex) laterally.   Passing back from the olfactory bulb,
