Without writing them all out, what is the number of subsets of set A = {tongue, ear, mouth, eye, nose}
---------------
Each of the 5 elements is either "in" or "not in" each subset.
--
So there are 2 choices for each element.
---
And there are 5 elements.
---
So there are 2^5 = 32 different subsets including the empty subset.
