Key Points

Humans can taste sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and umami; umami is the savoriness of certain foods that are commonly high in protein.

Odors come from molecules in the air that stimulate receptors in the nose; if an organism does not have a receptor for that particular odor molecule, for that organism, the odor has no smell.

The senses of smell and taste are directly related because they both use the same types of receptors.

If one’s sense of smell is not functional, then the sense of taste will also not function because of the relationship of the receptors.

Key Terms

umami: one of the five basic tastes, the savory taste of foods such as seaweed, cured fish, aged cheeses and meats

olfactory: concerning the sense of smell

receptor: a protein on a cell wall that binds with specific molecules so that they can be absorbed into the cell in order to control certain functions
