Tasting and smelling both involve the ability to sense chemicals. true or false
lara31 [8.8K]
TRUE.
Taste and smell senses are separate senses with their own receptor organs yet they are intimately entwined. Tastants, chemicals in foods are detected by taste buds which consist of special sensory cells.. When stimulated, these cells send signals to specific areas of the brain which then makes us conscious of the perception of taste. Also specialized cells in the nose pick up odorants, airborne odor molecules. Odorants stimulate receptor proteins found on hairlike cilia at the tips of the sensory cells, a process that initiates a neural response.
