Pulmonate land snails usually have two sets of tentacles on their head: the upper pair have an eye at the end; the lower pair are for olfaction. [1]In anatomy, an eyestalk (sometimes spelled eye stalk and also known as an ommatophore) is a protrusion that extends an eye away from the body, giving the eye a better field of view. [1]

In terrestrial gastropods (land snails and slugs), the olfactory organs, located on the tips of the four tentacles, are the most important sensory organ. [23] The chemosensory organs of opisthobranch marine gastropods are called rhinophores. The majority of gastropods have simple visual organs, eye spots either at the tip or base of the
The anterior olfactory nucleus is the memory hub for smell. [24] When different odor objects or components are mixed, humans and other mammals sniffing the mixture (presented by, e.g., a sniff bottle) are often unable to identify the components in the mixture even though they can recognize each individual component presented alone. [25]
By RYAN GORMAN Horrifying video has emerged of doctors pulling maggots out of a man's ear. The unidentified Indian man went to a doctor's office to complain about hearing a non-stop buzzing sound.
For example, the Scarabaeidae have lamellate antennae that can be folded tightly for safety or spread openly for detecting odours or pheromones. The insect manages such actions by changes in blood pressure, by which it exploits elasticity in walls and membranes in the funicles, which are in effect erectile.
A video shows the long creature with tentacles and large eyes floating through the water and excreting a cloud of greenish-yellow ink. “Note the abstract shapes made by the squid inking: Squids ...
This study was an opportunity to look for the presence of microplastics in the olfactory bulbs of the human brain. The olfactory bulbs are a critical component of people’s ability to smell.
