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.
Where is taste mostly pronounced in the tongue?
A 1901 study showed that the back of the tongue tasted the bitter, the sides the sour, the front the sweet, and so on. Spicy was not one of the 4 flavors described in that study . . . The newer studies of the tongue with regard to taste have shown that the entire front, top, sides, and back are pretty much equal in what they taste; however, it has been shown that certain parts of the tongue are first to be able to taste certain flavors. But once there is enough concentration of a substance to be able to taste it at all, all parts of the tongue taste the substance pretty equally. The basic 4 "tastes": sweet, sour, salty, and bitter, are present all over the tongue.
