Sight, also known as vision, is the ability to perceive
and interpret visual stimuli through the eyes. It
involves the detection of light, color, shapes, and
movement, allowing individuals to see and
understand their surroundings. The eyes capture
light, which is then processed by the brain to create
the visual experience we perceive.
3. HEARING
(ADDITION)
Hearing, also known as audition, is the sense that allows
us to perceive and interpret sound vibrations. It involves
the detection of changes in air pressure that result from
sound waves. The ears capture these vibrations, and the
auditory system processes them to enable us to hear a
wide range of sounds, from music and speech to
environmental noises.
4. TASTE
GUSTATION
Taste, also known as gustation, is the sense that enables
us to perceive different flavors. Taste buds on the
tongue detect and respond to various chemical
compounds present in food and drink. The basic taste
sensations include sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami.
Through taste, individuals can distinguish and enjoy a
variety of flavors, contributing to the overall sensory
experience of eating.
5. SMELL

Smell, or olfaction, is a powerful sense that detects
and identifies odors, contributing significantly to our
overall sensory experiences and memories.

receptors, allowing us to perceive pressure,
temperature, pain, and textures, fostering a
connection with our surroundings.
