Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Taste receptors are located on the taste buds, which are clusters of cells located on the tongue, as well as on the roof of the mouth and inside cheeks. While papillae and microvilli play a role in taste perception, they are not the primary location of taste receptors. The gustatory bulb is a region of the brain that processes taste information, but it is not a location of taste receptors.
