UNIT 7: SEE, SMELL, HEAR

What things can you see, hear, smell, taste or touch? Gimme 5 sentences

5 senses of human:

Taste

There are thousands of taste buds on the tongue that sense five types of taste, sweet, salty, bitter, sour,
and umami. The signals sent from the taste buds are processed in the gustatory cortex. A combination
of taste and smell leads to flavor. This is why food "tastes" different when your nose is stuffy.

Smell

There are a large number of receptors in the upper reaches of the nose. These olfactory receptors sense
smell using mucus-covered cilia, which are like tiny hairs that respond to "smelly" molecules. The
olfactory cortex that receives and processes these signals is in the front of the brain.

Sight

The sight receptors are in the back of the eye on the retina. Rods are used for black and white vision,
while cones are for color vision. Vision is processed in the occipital cortex. The right side of the visual
cortex processes signals from the left visual field and the right visual field is processed in the left visual
cortex.

Hearing

Hearing involves a complex chain of processes but ends up in the inner ear in a spiral-shape cavity called
the cochlea, where the mechanical signal is turned into an electrical signal to send it to the auditory
cortex in the center of the brain.

Touch

The skin is the body's largest organ. It has millions of touch receptors that respond to touch, pressure,
pain, and temperature. The somatosensory cortex processes these signals. There are more of these
receptors in fingertips, lips, and eyelids.
