Question: Do our taste buds require smell?

Hypothesis:

It tasted like sweet sugar but then when i unblocked my nose it tasted like blueberry


Materials:


Jelly Beans
Your hands
Your nose
Your eyes

Procedure:
  1. Blindfold cover your eyes
  2. Block nose
  3. Put jelly bean in mouth and chew (don’t swallow)
  4. Record the flavor you taste
  5. Unblock your nose
  6. Taste again
  7. Then record

Observations:

When i blocked my nose all i could taste was sugar which was disgusting. After i unblocked my nose i could taste the actual flavor which was blueberry



Conclusion:

My hypothesis was right because after I blocked my nose all I could taste was sugar and once I unblocked my nose it tasted like a blueberry, feijoa but still disgusting

Explanation about why is it important to have eight hour of sleep every night

Sleeping is one of the most important things you need to do every night.I wonder why you have to sleep just only for eight  hour?what is sleep? sleep is when you close your eyes and your body shuts down and gives you a good nice relaxing time you even begin to start growing.

The reason why it is really important for younger people to have several hour of sleep is because when they go to school they need to pay attention to what the teacher is teaching class which mean you need a good,nice,healthy breakfast and even have a good night rest.
