Hey steemians...sorry for the inconsistency!
As I showed you guys before, we discussed about senses.
Let’s discuss about the
Primary Taste modes, but what are “modes”?
A mode is a category of sensation detected by a sensory receptor.
The Primary Modes are the
Sweet - detects sugars
Sour - detects acid
Bitter - detects alkaline solutions
Salty - detects sodium ions
Metallic - detects metal ions
Umami (savory) - detects
glutamate (an amino acid)
