The sense of taste is one of a person's five senses. We taste with the help of taste-buds in
the tongue.
There are four main kinds of taste: sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. All other tastes are just
mixtures of two or more of these main types.
The surface of the tongue has more than fifteen thousand taste-buds (or cells). These are
connected to the brain by special nerves which send the so-called 'tastes messages.
When the tongue comes into contact with food of any kind, the taste-buds will pick up
the taste. The nerves then send a message to the brain. This will make us aware of the taste. All
this happens in just a few seconds.
There are four kinds of taste-buds, each of which is sensitive to only a particular taste.
These four groups are located in different parts of the tongue.
The taste-buds for salty and sweet tastes are found round the tip of the tongue and along
its sides. Sour tastes can be picked up only at the sides of the tongue. The taste-buds of the bitter
taste are found at the innermost edge of the tongue. There are taste-buds at the centre of the
tongue.
The senses of smell and sight can affect taste. The good smell of food increases its taste.
Similarly, attractive colours can make food appear tastier and more delicious. If food does not
smell good or is dull-coloured, it will look tasty and may not taste good at all.
Very hot or cold sensations can make the taste-buds insensitive. Food that is too hot or
too cold, when placed in the mouth, will have no tastes at all.

The Digestive System

Human body is made u of countless million of cells. Food is needed to build up new cells
and replace the worn out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed into substances
that can be carried in the blood to the places where they re needed. This process is called
digestion.
The first digestive takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into small pieces
by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands in the mouth. Salive contains
digestive juices which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into the stomach.
Here, the food is mixed with te juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for several hours. Then
the food enters the small intestine. All the time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing,
mixing and moving the food onwards.
In a few hours, the food change into acids. These are soon absorbed by the villi
microscopic branch projections from the intestine walls) and passed into the bloodstream.
