Sensory Neurons: These are nerve cells that transmit information from receptor cells to the brain. They act as messengers between the sensory organs and the central nervous system.
Gustatory System:This is the sensory system responsible for our sense of taste. It includes not only receptor cells but also other structures involved in taste perception, such as taste buds and cranial nerves.
Chemoreceptors: These are a type of receptor cell specifically sensitive to chemicals. In taste perception, chemoreceptors on our taste buds detect chemical compounds in food and beverages, allowing us to experience different tastes.
