Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The olfactory bulbs are responsible for processing information related to smell, and therefore receive signals from neurons in the sinus cavity when Jerry smells the grass after it rains. The thalamus is responsible for relaying sensory information to the appropriate parts of the brain, but it does not directly process smells. The opticfactory bulbs and hippocampus have nothing to do with the sense of smell.
