Jude is suffering from a severe cold. His nose has been stopped up for several days. What effect, if any, might his cold have on his sense of taste? a. His sense of taste will be increased since he isn’t receiving additional sensory input from his smell. b. His sense of taste will be dulled since taste and smell often work together. c. His sense of taste will get better but not until 48 hours after he loses his sense of smell. d. His sense of taste will be no better or worse since the senses of taste and smell are completely separate.
