What are Gustatory hairs?
Gustatory hairs are small hair-like structures found on the taste buds, which are clusters of sensory cells located on the tongue and in the mouth. These hairs play a role in detecting and transmitting information about the taste of food and drinks to the brain. They contain receptors that are sensitive to different taste molecules, allowing us to perceive sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami tastes.
What is the type of bud located in the mouth?
The type of bud located in the mouth is called a taste bud. Taste buds are specialized sensory organs found on the tongue and in other areas of the oral cavity, responsible for detecting different tastes such as sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami. They contain taste receptor cells that send signals to the brain, allowing us to perceive flavors.
