Frank Zufall, known for his research in this field, states that scent ad-
50
aptation contains mechanisms that are so complex that the processes at
the molecular level are still not fully understood. There are thought to be
at least three different scent-adaptation mechanisms in the scent receptor
cells. In addition, there must also be centers in the brain to monitor the

sense organs that either transmit or halt this information.
In that case, how did the scent-receptor and brain cells, themselves
consisting of atoms like carbon, nitrogen and oxygen, come to develop an
adaptation system, whose details are still unknown? How do they know

when, and when not, to go into action? How do they act in the very best
manner on your behalf, without your becoming involved in any way?

A cook’s sensitivity to smells in the kitchen soon declines in a matter of minutes. In
this way, he is not bothered by the intense aromas constantly reaching him and is
also able to immediately detect any new odor—such as a gas leak or something
burning.
