As we all know, your tongue is a muscular organ.. 00:00:00
..that helps you perceive the taste and texture of food.. 00:00:04
..assists you to create speech while talking.. 00:00:08
..and is vital for jump-starting the digestive process when you eat. 00:00:11
Also, the tongue being extremely movable helps us eat. 00:00:18
It enables us to turn solid food into a mash with the support of your teeth. 00:00:23
And while the teeth grind the food, it gets mixed with saliva, also known as spit. 00:00:30
This mixture of food and saliva then get pushed by your tongue to the back of the throat, 00:00:37
where it goes down through your esophagus and into your stomach. 00:00:44
Next comes an essential feature of your tongue 00:00:49
That is tasting 00:00:54
Most people mistake the rough bumpy structure on the surface of the tongue as taste buds 00:00:56
But these are papillae 00:01:03
And it's actually papillae that contains the taste buds that help you taste everything 00:01:07
And you can detect the variety of flavors like sweet, bitter, sour and salty. 00:01:13
But it won't be possible to enjoy these flavors without the amazing smelling powers of the nose. 00:01:22
As taste and smell are interdependent. 00:01:28
Also, some animals like frogs, chameleons and ant eaters have tongues that are designed to help them catch their prey. 00:01:33
Their tongue is usually extra large and extends out of their mouth to grab insects. 00:01:42
But the largest tongue among all animals is that of the blue whale. 00:01:50
Their tongue weighs an average of 2.7 metric tons. 00:01:55
