What to Focus On

  • A fall in blood glucose levels triggers hunger pangs.
  • Ghrelin is secreted from cells in the wall of the stomach when the stomach is empty.
  • Ghrelin stimulates hunger, while leptin suppresses hunger.
  • Taste and smell together create flavour.
  • Food must dissolve in saliva for taste to be detected.
  • Olfactory receptors in the nose detect smell.
  • Mastication is the chewing process.
  • Incisors cut, canines tear, and premolars and molars grind.
  • The 5th cranial nerve controls jaw muscles.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Hunger is controlled only by the brain, so hormones have no role in it.

Ghrelin is secreted when the stomach is full, and leptin is secreted when the stomach is empty.

Taste can be identified easily even when food is dry, because the tongue alone detects it.

Memory Tips

Hunger starts when blood glucose falls and ghrelin rises

Leptin suppresses hunger when the stomach is full

Diencephalon and vagus nerve carry hunger signals

Hunger pangs continue for 30-45 minutes
