Saliva is secreted as reflex action after seeing and smelling of delicious food.
Explanation:
- When we see some delicious food we salivate because after seeing the tasty food the saliva is produced as the reflex action of our mind.
- The smell and visual signal are transferred to the brain and the brain anticipates that we are eating the food so it signals salivary glands to secrete the saliva.
- As a result, saliva is secreted by the salivary gland in our mouth. Saliva contains salivary amylase enzyme which is responsible for the breakdown of carbohydrates which is present in our food.
