Description

This page, from the Science Is Fun Web site, features information about the senses of taste and smell, also called chemoreception. Explanations are given about how these senses work in our bodies and how they help us respond to the chemical nature of our surroundings. In addition to the information, there is a printable table of chemical compounds on which students can test and record the smells associated with those compounds.
