Q. why does food taste differently when your nose is blocked?-3mks
Asked by deepitapai | 06 Jun, 2008, 11:24: AM
Expert Answer

A lot of the flavour of food comes in through the nose. When you chew, chemicals are released into your mouth and some go up the back of your throat into your nose. Your tongue is not as refined at telling flavours apart, so your nose is an important part of tasting. When you have a cold, your nose gets blocked up and the chemicals from the food can’t get through. This is why food can taste bland or different.

Two human beings who can both roll their tongues produced 11 children. 3 of these children could not roll their tongues and 8 children could roll their tongues. (a) Which trait (rolling or not rolling) is controlled by the recessive allele? (b) State all possible genotypes of the F1 generation of the cross. Show the inheritance of the tongue rolling in humans in the given example using a suitable cross. What percentage of offspring will show the same genotype as the parents? OR (c) If one of the parents could not roll their tongue, with the help of a cross, calculate the ratio of tongue- rollers to non-tongue-rollers in the off springs.​
