Human Tongue

Description

The human tongue is a flexible, muscular organ located in the mouth that plays a key role in taste, speech, chewing, and swallowing. Covered in taste buds, it helps detect different flavors and also assists in forming words and moving food during eating. This object falls under the Natural Sciences category, especially in human anatomy, biology, and sensory systems. Educators can use a tactile graphic of the tongue to support lessons on the five senses, oral health, and body systems, helping students understand how this small organ contributes to both communication and digestion.
