It is difficult to decide the importance of one set of senses over another, because consequentially, each of the senses enables the working of another or two of the senses. Seeing, hearing, smelling, feeling, and tasting are all somehow connected to each other; without one of the five, a particular system also becomes lacking in the sense department. That said, because of the importance in the olfactory nerves, the sense of smell is perhaps the most necessary of the senses. Without smell, a number of the other senses become lacking. Smell enables one's taste buds to taste the bitterness, sweetness, saltiness, and sourness of a particular food. Smell also acts as a warning sign for many different reasons; for instance, one can clearly determine...

On the other hand, a musician's most important senses run along those of his or her sight and hearing. One can even argue that the sense of feeling is another alternate warning sign for those who rely on their pain thresholds to help them avoid objects or situations.

I read the label and make sure they are plain chips, because I do not like flavored chips. When I am satisfied they are the type of chip I like, I break open the

Physiology & the Orange As I tune in to "my orange," I find that it is difficult to separate the sensory input that I am experiencing. My mind seems to put integration on automatic pilot. Before I close my eyes, I find my visual sense to be dominant. I know that I tend to be a visually-oriented person anyway, so this is not really a surprise. But in my attempts to
