How does the sense of smell work? – Senses for Kids

Educational video for children to learn how the sense of smell works. The smells we are able to detect are particles or chemical substances found in the air. These particles enter our nose through the nostrils and reach the nasal cavity, then they travel to the olfactory membrane and right after that to the olfactory nerve which takes the information to the brain. Did you know that animals are able to detect a lot more smells than humans? This video belongs to a video series about how human senses work. Amazing resource for elementary school.
