Answer:

C. Olfactory cortex

Step-by-step explanation:

Olfaction first occurs in the sensory cilia of olfactory neurons, and the generated olfactory signals are transmitted to the olfactory cortex and to other area of the brain through synaptic connections of olfactory neurons with downstream neurons, such as mitral or tufted cells, in the main olfactory bulb.
