How do buterflies taste tings?

Butterflies taste things using chemoreceptors located on their legs and mouthparts. These receptors help them detect different chemicals in their environment, allowing them to find food sources and mates.


What are know as the 'chemical senses'?

The "chemical senses" refer to taste and smell, which are sensory systems that detect and respond to chemical molecules in the environment. Taste involves the detection of chemicals in food through taste buds on the tongue, while smell involves the detection of chemicals in the air through olfactory receptors in the nasal cavity.


Does being sick affect the way foods taste?

Part of the reason something tastes good to us is that we can also smell it as we eat. Humans have specialized sensory cells in the nasal cavity called olfactory sensory neurons. These neurons give us our sense of smell. If you're stopped up due to a cold, it impedes those senses and you aren't able to smell as well. A cold also doesn't allow as good of air intake through the nasal passages which normally allows different chemicals (scents) to pass over these neurons and be sensed (smelled). Since taste and smell are correlated, that component of your enjoyment of food will be diminished, at least temporarily.

How smell and taste related?

How are smell and taste related? The answer is simple: When we taste, we use our sense of smell. Have you ever noticed why when you have a cold, or you've plugged your nose, you can't taste the food in your mouth? This is because we assume automatically that what we are smelling is going to taste that way. So it does. Most of the time. When you taste, you are using your sense of smell to kind of tell you what it is that your eating. If you were to close your eyes and hold your nose and then taste apples and a potato, you wouldn't be able to tell a difference. At all. Except maybe the texture. ~Thanks, WorldBook 2001 Edition.

How can the sense of taste protect you?

Sight, smell, and taste all work together to protect the body. When we smell rancid food, we know not to eat it. Bacteria gives off proteins as it breaks down foods, which gives off a distinct odor. About the only time sight, smell, and taste fail to detect bacterial poisons in meat are the natural juices of uncooked chicken. Also, some true chemical poisons have no odors.
