Senses
- There are five senses – sight, smell, touch, taste and hearing.
- Our senses help us to understand what’s happening around us.
- Our senses send messages through receptor cells to our brain, using our nervous system to deliver that message.
- There are four kinds of taste receptors on the tongue – bitter, sweet, salt and sour.
- Some parts of the skin are more sensitive than others – this is because they have more receptor cells.
- We taste food using both our sense of taste and smell.
