Taste and smell

Welcome to my blog this week we have learned about the tongue and where certain taste buds are like where you can taste sweet, bitter, sour, salty. Those are the tastebuds we have here is a picture to show our tastebuds.

these are the taste buds
In our research, we aimed to figure out taste buds where these are some methods.
1: hold your nose
2: try to remember the taste
3: feel the texture of the food

some fun facts about the human tongue
the average tongue is about three inches long
your tongue has between 2000 and 4000 taste buds
taste buds are designed to keep us alive

  2. Hi Lucas.
    Did you enjoy the taste experiments? Did you know that your tongue had different taste regions before you did the salty/sweet/bitter/sour test?
    What else have you learnt recently about taste and smell?
    Thanks
