3. Sense organs are adapted to sense light, sound, heat, chemicals, and pressure that comes into your personal territory.

4. The eye is the vision sense organ.
Your eyes have unique adaptations that usually enable you to see shapes of objects, shadows, and color.

5. As light enters the eye, it passes through the cornea and is refracted.

6. The lens directs the light onto the retina.
The retina is a tissue at the back of the eye that is sensitive to light energy.

7. Two types of cells called rods and cones are found in the retina.
The optic nerve carries the impulses to the vision area of the cortex, located on your brain’s cerebrum.

8. Sound waves are necessary for hearing sound.
Sound waves are produced when an object vibrates.

9. Your ear intercepts sound waves and funnels them down the ear canal to the middle ear.
Vibrations in the ear bend hair cells in the cochlea, which causes electrical impulses to be sent to the brain by a nerve.

10. Structures in your inner ear also control your body’s balance.

11. You smell food because it gives off molecules into the air.
Olfactory cells are nerve cells in your nasal passages.
Olfactory cells are kept moist by mucus.

12. Taste buds on your tongue are the major sensory receptors for taste.
About 10,000 taste buds are found all over your tongue,
enabling you to tell one taste from another.

13. Most taste buds respond to several taste sensations.
The five taste sensations on the tongue are sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami, the taste of savory.

14. Smell and taste are related.
The sense of smell is needed to identify some foods.
When saliva in your mouth mixes with the chocolate, odors travel up the nasal passage in the back of your throat.
The olfactory cells are stimulated, and the taste and smell of chocolate are sensed.

15. Your internal organs have several kinds of sensory receptors like touch, pressure, pain, and temperature.

16. Sensory receptors also are located throughout your skin.
Your fingertips have many different types of receptors for touch, as a result, you can tell whether an object is rough or smooth, hot or cold, and hard or soft.
