Sense Organs : (Brief Essay)

Our environment and surroundings communicate with us but we should be able to understand and comprehend them. The 5 sensory organs of our body help us to get a clear picture on our environment and things happening around us. The 5 senses and their corresponding sensory organs are:

  1. Taste – Tongue
  2. Sight – Eyes
  3. Touch – Skin
  4. Smell – Nose
  5. Hear – Ears

Taste: The taste buds of our tongue give us the sense of taste. We can sense 4 separate flavors

  • salty
  • sweet
  • sour
  • bitter

Tongue is the strongest muscle of our body. It has the capability to heal back from injury sooner than any other part of your body.  Tongue also helps to make a few sounds while we talk.

Sight: The eyes of our body aid us in seeing objects around us. Eyes also help us to differentiate between colors.

Touch: We have sense of touch all over our body. The 4 touch sensations that skin can identify are:

  • cold
  • heat
  • contact
  • pain

It is a surprising fact that our skin has most of the nerve ending of our body.

Smell: Our nose helps us to smell. We are able to smell with the help of mucous membranes inside of the nose. Nose cleans the air we breathe and we inhale through our nose also.

Hearing: Our ears help us to hear and we have 2 separate parts of ears:

  • Inner Ear
  • Middle Ear
  • Outer Ear

Too much of exposure of anything might damage the respective sensory organ. So, we should learn the limits of exposure before coming into contact with the environment.
