How do we smell?
Watch TedEd video “How do we smell?”
In your journal, write a hypothesis for the question: How do our olfactory receptors distinguish between different smells?
Read “The Role of the Active Site” and revise your hypothesis.
Model Olfactory Receptors
1. Work in pairs to create a model of olfactory receptors that meet the shape and chemical property requirements of the provided “smell molecules” (puzzle pieces).
2. Using your model, create a stop motion video to explain how the olfactory receptors work using the terms: functional groups, receptor, active site, chemical properties (of amino acid R-group).
