Answer 2

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Olfaction is a special sense that is associated with specific organs. The olfactory system comprises the nostrils, nadal cavity, ethmoid bone and olfactory epithelium.

Odor molecules can go into the peripheral pathway thereby reaching the nasal cavity through the nostrils when inhaling or by the throat when air is pushed by the tongue to the nasal cavity when swallowing or chewing.

The olfactory epithrlium also covers the mucus since it contains mucous membranes.
