| Division: | Life Sciences | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | New Brunswick | | City: | Grand Falls, NB | | School: | John Caldwell School | | Abstract: | This project studied the difference in levels of olfactory perception between males and females from different age groups. We used 12 different scents and tested 120 subjects between the ages of 11/90, and then compared the results. We found that females had a 10% better sense of smell than males in all age groups, and that olfactory acuity began to diminish after age 20. |
