Our Taste By Alyssa
What Allows us to taste?
Let’s find out how we taste do you know how!?
Kids have more papillae than adults kids have approximately 10,000 papillae and adults have approximately 5,000 papillae. Now you are probably wondering what papillae are well let me tell you. Papillae are little reddish pink bumps on your tongue you can not see them with a naked eye but you sort of feel them. Adults have less papillae because theirs die. Around the papillae there are these hair like projections called micro villi along with taste buds.
But when you get a cold or a runny nose you won’t be able to smell the same smell as when you are ok just by blocking the airways it blocks the inside and outsides. So you can’t smell anything because the snot keeps the smell molecules away from where they need to be.
At the top of your nose there is this little area (Olfactory receptors) that sends signals to your brain to tell you the smell also it can tell you if the food or drink is expired or bad. When you chew the food the smell molecules (smell odors) go to your nose by travelling through a cavity that connects the nose to the mouth.
Also did you know your nose helps you eat and can save your life? I know I didn’t know that!

Fun Fact The Original Meaning Of Poo π© π© π© π© π© π© π©
Its original meaning: It comes from a symbol that means good luck. It doesn't mean 'here's a pile of poo to make you smile/laugh/cry' it simply means good luck. Because that's what poo means in Japanese culture, apparently.
