Taste receptors are sensory cells located in the taste buds on our tongues that allow us to perceive different tastes. They can detect five primary tastes: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami.
The gustatory system is responsible for detecting and processing taste information from the taste receptors.
Taste buds are small structures on our tongues that contain taste receptor cells. They house the actual tastebuds where the action happens.
Papillae are tiny bumps on our tongues where taste buds reside. They help protect and support the taste buds.
