Which of the following is not a correct statement about the way aging affects the senses of taste, smell, or touch?   
A) The loss of the sense of smell can lead to inadequate nutrition or dietary imbalances.   
B) Reduced secretion of saliva causes a sensation of "woolly mouth."   
C) The ability to taste the four basic tastes of salty, bitter, sweet, and sour declines across adulthood.   
D) Elderly adults lose their sensitivity to heat and cold in a reverse-proximodistal pattern, which causes sensation to be lost first in the extremities.
