What taste receptors are most concentrated at the back of the tongue?
A popular myth assigns these different tastes to different regions of the tongue; in reality these tastes can be detected by any area of the tongue. On average, the human tongue has 2,000-8,000 taste buds. The taste receptor cells send information detected by clusters of various receptors and ion channels to the gustatory areas of the brain via the seventh, ninth and tenth cranial nerves.
Where are the bitter taste buds located?
The area of the tongue that controls the taste and sensation of bitterness is located primarily in the back of the tongue, close to the uvula and going back towards the throat. The area of the tongue that controls the taste of sourness is located in the lateral-back of the tongue. The area that controls the sensation of saltiness is located on the lateral front of the tongue, and the part of the tongue that controls the sensation of sweetness is on the tip of the tongue.
If you split your tongue can you still taste?
yes, you can still taste Your taste buds do not connect to a central core prior to sending the chemical compounds to your brain. Splitting the tongue will probably kill quite a few taste buds (not as many as smoking, but still bad). I do believe that taste buds can not heal, but the types are spread throughout your tongue. Each section of the outer area of your tongue has a majority to each taste, such as the tip of your tongue contains mostly sweet sensing tastebuds, but those taste buds are still found throughout your tongue.
Where are the sensory receptors of the tongue?
Taste buds contain the receptors for taste. They are located around the small structures on the upper surface of the tongue, soft palate, upper esophagus, the cheek, epiglottis, which are called papillae. These structures are involved in detecting the five (known) elements of taste perception: salty, sour, bitter, sweet, and umami.

How does your tongue detect sweetness?
Taste is detected by sensory receptors (chemoreceptors) in our taste buds, which cover the tongue but are also found in the soft palate of the mouth and the throat. The cranial nerves associated with taste are the glossopharyngeal (VII), facial (IX) and vagus (X) nerves. When the receptors in the taste buds are stimulated by food, impulses are sent along these nerves to the part of the brain where taste is perceived (in the parietal lobe) The area of the tongue which is thought to be most sensitive to sweet tastes is the tip.
