They may make children calmer and better able to concentrate, but they also may limit growth or have other side effects. Mentioned in: Autism . This means they can simultaneously observe the cellular responses and interactions of all of the taste modalities Modalities The factors and circumstances that cause a patient's symptoms to improve or worsen, including weather, time of day, effects of food, and similar factors. - sweet, bitter, salty, sour and umami For the record label, see .
