Answer 1

The component involved first in the process of responding to the smell of cookies baking is dendrites in your sensory neurons. When you smell the cookies, sensory neurons in your nose detect the odor molecules and send signals through their dendrites to your brain, initiating the response that leads you to walk toward the kitchen.
