How do people smell food?
A specialized smell receptor is situated In the roof of the nasal canal,called Olfactory mucosa. the olfactory epithelium is innervated by the olfactory(1st cranial)nerve and some branches of the 5th nerve.Olfactory epithelium contains three kinds of cells,namely olfactory receptor cells,supporting cells and basal cells.Olfactory receptor cells are sensory hair cells,sensitive to all kind of cells.Their axons terminally join the olfactory nerve. Supporting cells are mucus-secreting columnar cells. Basal cells are the stem cells from which new receptor cells are formed.Olfaction,just like taste,is a chemical sense. The molecules of the odorous substances reach the nasal canal along with the inspired air. Here, they dissolve in the mucus secretion and then attach to the receptor cells. This stimulates the receptor cells and they generate olfactory impulses. Olfactory nerves transmit these impulses to the olfactory center in the temporal lobe of the cerebrum(known as the olfactory cortex)

Where are the sensory receptors of the tongue?
Taste buds contain the receptors for taste. They are located around the small structures on the upper surface of the tongue, soft palate, upper esophagus, the cheek, epiglottis, which are called papillae. These structures are involved in detecting the five (known) elements of taste perception: salty, sour, bitter, sweet, and umami. Researchers say people may have a “sixth” taste for fatty foods.A popular myth assigns these different tastes to different regions of the tongue; in reality these tastes can be detected by any area of the tongue.On average, the human tongue has 2,000–8,000 taste buds
