Olfactory tracts are neural pathways. Their main function is to carry (convey) olfactory (related to the sense of smell) information. The olfactory bulbs are structures in the brain that receive initial smell - related signals. After processing in the olfactory bulbs, the information needs to be sent to cortical (brain cortex) areas for further interpretation. Olfactory cilia are part of the olfactory receptor cells (they are hair - like structures that detect odor molecules). Olfactory receptors are cells that first detect odorants. Olfactory dendrites are parts of the olfactory receptor neurons that receive signals from the cilia. So, based on the function of conveying information from olfactory bulbs to cortical areas, the correct term is olfactory tracts.
