The gustatory system consists of taste receptor cells in taste buds. Taste buds, in turn, are contained in structures called papillae. There are three types of papillae involved in taste: fungiform papillae, foliate papillae, and circumvallate papillae.(The fourth type-filiform papillae do not contain taste buds).ombinations of these receptors in dimers or other complexes contributes to different perceptions of taste. Visual, olfactive, âsapictiveâ (the perception of tastes), trigeminal (hot, cool), mechanical, all contribute to the perception of taste.
There are 4 main types of taste: Sweet, sour, bitter, and salt. Sense of taste is primarily located on the tongue. Each type of taste is located within taste buds on different sections of the tongue. As you chew your food, it mixes with saliva and as it comes in contact with the taste buds, messages are sent to the brain regarding your sense of taste.
