1 lut 2024 · Dog nose is on the left, nasal cavity in the middle and the brain on the right. Odor molecules travel first through the nose and respiratory epithelium (yellow) towards the upper region of the nasal cavity where they are captured by olfactory receptor cells that are embedded within the olfactory mucosa in olfactory epithelium (green).
The central nervous system includes the spinal cord and the brain. The brain is divided into 3 main sections—the brain stem, which controls many basic life functions, the cerebrum, which is the center of conscious decision-making, and the cerebellum, which is involved in movement and motor control. The spinal cord of dogs is divided into ...
17 sie 2022 · We discovered an extensive white matter network extending from the olfactory bulb to form novel connections directly to other cortices of the brain. This is the first documentation of these novel olfactory connections and provides new insight into how dogs integrate olfactory stimuli in their cognitive functioning.
19 lip 2022 · Powerful nerve connections link the dog nose to wide swaths of the brain, researchers report July 11 in the Journal of Neuroscience. One of these canine connections, a hefty link between areas...
18 wrz 2022 · Nasal planum – button of the dog’s nose. The nostrils are held open and supported by alar cartilage. In some brachycephalic dogs, this cartilage is so weak that the nostrils collapse in on themselves during inspiration. Brachycephalic dogs will often undergo a surgical procedure to widen artificially widen these nostrils again.
