Sense of smell in humans and with Ada

The human olfactory mucous membrane contains ca. 30 million olfactory cells that allow us to differentiate among ca. 1,000 different groups of odiferous molecules. The gaseous molecules latch onto the sensory hairs of the olfactory cells, which serves to trigger a nerve impulse. Compared to certain types of animals, the human sense of smell is relatively undeveloped.

Sense of smell has not been realised with Ada.
