Answer 2

On watching good food our mouth starts watering. This fluid is actually Saliva (Option d).

• The mouth starts watering due to the increase in the release of saliva.
• When we see or smell good food, the enzymes get activated automatically.
• The desire to eat that food makes the brain think that we are having that food and that is when our brain signals our mouth to produce more saliva.
• Hence, the correct answer is option (d).
