Whale 3. Chemical substances inhaled through the nose dissolve in the mucus and stimulate the
Dog sensory cells of smell. Then, impulses are sent to the brain.
Cat
Bat 5. When we have flu, the thick layer of mucus in the nose hinders these sensory cells. Then,
we are unable to smell as usual.
23. Device to overcome hearing limitations
Device 3.When we eat, the chemical substances from the food dissolve in the saliva and stimulate
Stethoscope the taste buds. Then the receptors on the taste buds send impulses to the brain.
Loudhailer
6. When the nose is pinched while eating, food that is being eaten cannot be judged properly.
Hearing aid
7. When a person is having a flu, the taste of food cannot be detected because too much of
