Can You Smell That? The purpose of this experiment is to discover when people start to smell a certain scent. The question that is being investigated is how does the human nose recognize a specific smell and why people smell so many different scents. This question is important because it is a way to figure out the different odor thresholds. Odor threshold is the minimum amount of the scent needed in order for someone to recognize the smell in a room. It is important to answer this question because

My topic is to further investigate the differences in dog and human saliva. I will conduct an experiment that will prove whose mouths are cleaner. I decided to do this experiment because I have always heard people say that dogs mouths are nine times cleaner than our mouths. I would like to know whose mouths are cleaner because I have two dogs. I have always been curious about this topic. Humans and dogs have wet dry mouths. These mouths are perfect for the reproduction and growth of bacteria, which

This topic is important because it shows how people are able to recognize a certain smell much sooner than other. This experiment will show how one scent might have a higher odor threshold than another scent. The question that is being answered is how does the human nose recognize a specific smell and why people smell so many different scents. From this topic one can learn which scents have a higher or lower odor threshold and knowing which scents of smell the human nose recognizes much easier than

Participants will also be fitted with earplugs in the sleep laboratory to dampen background noise. Odour presentation during sleep will be via an olfactometer based on air dilution olfactometry using the set up described in Schredl, et al., (2014). The experimenter and equipment will be in a separate, adjacent room. Nine-point Likert scales ranging from extremely negative to extremely positive will be
