Receptors are special stimulus which help in responding to surrounding environment. There are 5 types of receptors , Light ( Photoreceptor ) , Sound , ear ( Phonoreceptor ) , Taste ( Gustutory receptor ) , Skin ( Tactile Receptor ) Smell . ( Olfactory Indicators ).

If receptors will not work properly , then you will not be able to respond to light , sound , taste , touch and smell.

Explanation:

All information from our environment is detected by the specialised tips of some nerve cells. These receptors are usually located in our sense organs, such as the inner ear, the nose, the tongue, and so on. So gustatory receptors will detect taste while olfactory receptors will detect smell. We detect that we are touching a hot object by the action of receptors present on various organs or tissues.

If olfactory receptor not works properly then we are not able to smell things like aggarbatti, perfumes, flavour of food.
