Detailed explanation-1: -Chemical Senses. Both the olfactory and taste senses are chemical senses. In other words these systems have receptors that can detect chemicals in the environment. In mammals these receptors are found either on the tongue for taste or in the nasal cavity for olfaction.
Detailed explanation-2: -Senses also allow animals to see, feel, hear, taste, and smell. Information from these senses is transferred to the brain, allowing reaction and interpretation of external stimuli.
Detailed explanation-3: -Specialized cells in an animal’s nervous system are called sensory receptors. Sensory receptors help an animal gather information about its environment. Sensory receptors are especially plentiful in sensory organs-the skin, ears, nose, mouth, and eyes-but they also occur in other parts of the body.
