Emort Memory Of Many Senses: Dominican Republic
emort Memory of Many Senses Senses are a very powerful thing in every person’s life no matter who you are you will be constantly using at least one of your senses. The sense of smell is one thing that not many people realize but it triggers memories in our brains and it can be a good or bad memory depending on the person. Fortunately for me most of the smells that strike memories for me are very good. The memory that strikes me most when I get a certain smell is the feeling of being in the Dominican Republic.

    Unknown A (Module 11A)

    Nevertheless, the similarity of odor to different compounds can be a source of error. For instance, the way humans detect odors is due to the presence of seven different receptors in the olfactory area. When smelling different compounds, some odor chemicals bind with olfactory receptors easily, and other odors need more time to bind with receptors. Therefore, after smelling different compounds one after the other, the receptors can be altered and associate the previous odor with the next one, mixing the smell and making difficult to distinguish correctly the respective odor. For this reason, perfume stores recommend to smell coffee beans between fragrances as a nose-clearing…

    A major breakthrough in understanding our sense of smell occurred in 1991 when Richard Axel and Linda Buck discovered the large family of genes that give us our sense of smell. (143) They discovered that there are a huge number of genes dedicated to olfactory sense. They also discovered that only three percent of our entire genome is dedicated to genes for detecting and processing different odors. For this discovery, Axel and Buck received and shared the Nobel Prize in 2004. (144)…

    Pineapples

    When the olfactory receptors located on the cilia are stimulated by chemicals dissolved in the mucus, they transmit impulses along the olfactory filaments, which comprise the olfactory nerve; this nerve conducts the impulses o the olfactory cortex of the brain. An "odor snapshot" is made in the olfactory cortex, which then becomes part of our long-term memory. The olfactory pathways are closely tied to the limbic system, the emotional-visceral part of the brain. Odors elicit strong emotional responses.…

    My Favorite Food

    My Favorite Food

    My favorite food may be a little different. It's not the traditional pizza or pasta, it’s definitely something I could have everyday, at any time of day. Some people probably have never even tried it fresh because it’s easier to buy in a can. It’s not something grown locally. Although, you can find it in an average super market, it can be a little pricey. I was introduced to this when I was very young, but the first time I had it fresh was in the Caribbean, I was twelve years old. As soon as I tried it I couldn’t get enough. It can also make one of my favorite drinks, a piña colada. If you haven’t guessed it yet.... my favorite food is pineapple. Pineapple can be served in many different ways; it can be dipped in chocolate, served on a platter with a variety of other fruit, made into smoothies and drinks and even served on a pizza with ham, otherwise known as Hawaiian pizza. In February 2012, I had the privilege to go on a family vacation to Antigua where I got to try a new kind of pineapple. It was called black pineapple; the only difference between a normal pineapple and that was it was smaller in size and a shade darker on the outside. I actually liked the black pineapple better because it was sweeter, but unfortunately it only grows in Antigua it is not found in the United States. What is cool about the pineapple in Antigua, you could find them growing in small patches on the side of the road. I’ve heard Hawaii has the best pineapple grown in the United States. Someday I would love to go to Hawaii just to try the pineapple. As a college student, I still continue to go to the grocery store and buy a whole pineapple to cut up and have it fresh in my dorm, but it will never compare to the taste of those found in the Caribbean.…
