Question

question 17 drew’s thalamus was damaged by an illness. which of drew’s senses would be unaffected?
○ touch
○ smell
○ hearing
○ vision

Explanation:

The thalamus acts as a relay station for most sensory information (touch, hearing, vision) to the cerebral cortex. However, the sense of smell (olfaction) has a direct pathway to the brain (bypassing the thalamus), so damage to the thalamus would not affect smell.

Answer:

B. smell
