Five Senses.

Your brain relies on (pasikliauti)your sensory organs to collect sensory information. The organs involved (apimti/ įtraukti) in your five senses are:

Your skin is the largest organ in the body and is also the primary (pirminis) sensory organ for your sense of touch.

After your brain receives light data, it forms a visual image. What you “see” when you open your eyes is your brain’s interpretation of the light entering your eyes. And it’s easiest for your brain to make sense of your surroundings when there is an abundance (gausa/ pakankamai) of light. That’s why it’s so challenging to pick out matching clothes in the dark.

Smells enter your body through the nose. Inside your nose is a large nerve called the olfactory bulb (uoslės svogūnėlis). It extends ( tęsiasi) from the top of your nose and plugs (panirti) directly into your brain. The airborne (ore esantis) molecules breathed in through your nose trigger (sukelti) a nervous response by the olfactory bulb. It notices odours and immediately informs your brain.

Here’s a few recognizable examples of your senses working together:

Protect your touch-sensitive skin with sunscreen and moisturizers. And drink enough water to avoid dehydration.
