Step-by-step explanation:

Humans can taste sour,sweet,bitter,salty and savoury flavours.Humans cannot taste vitamins as they are essential for the body.There is something in the nose called an olfactory receptor, also called smell receptor has proteins capable of binding odour molecules that plays a central role in the sense of smell in most vertebrates,arthropods and fish.
