A liability of olfactory nerves passing through the cribriform bone is: a) Nerves can be severed on impact b) Nervous transmission is fast c) Cells are upside down d) G-coupled proteins are unprotected e) Bone slows nervous transmission

a) Nerves can be severed on impact

Olfactory nerves serves the function of smell. This nerve passes through the cribriform plate of ethmoid bone of skull. If an impact occurs to skull the nerve can be severed and can cause and impaired sense of smell with a leak of Cerebro-spinal Fluid from nasal pathway.
