Smell lets an animal sense the presence of food or other animals—whether potential mates, predators, or prey—or other chemicals in the environment that can impact their survival. Similarly, the sense of taste allows animals to discriminate between types of foods.

Mechanoreceptors detect touch and body movement, while hearing involves structures like the eardrum. Vision is characterized in arthropods through compound eyes. Smell uses olfactory chemoreceptors in the nasal cavity. Additionally, some fish have electric organs for sensing electrical fields, and magnetoreceptors help animals navigate by detecting the Earth's magnetic field.

It elaborates on the specialized structures of these neurons that enable them to detect light and odorant ligands, respectively. The text details the molecular architecture of rod and cone photoreceptors and OSNs, emphasizing their similarities and differences.
