      Noses are really useful! Smell is very important sense in tasting food (which not only makes us happy but also tells us when we’re eating something that might be bad for us). Smell can also help us detect dangers (nowadays it can tell us if there’s a gas leak or a chemical around, but in the past it might have helped us detect other animals).

      Also, if we didn’t our glasses would fall off. Ho ho ho.
