Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Taste buds contain taste receptor cells, which are responsible for detecting different taste stimuli. They do not interact directly with taste stimuli, send axons to the brain, or house cells with axons. While taste buds are found on the tongue, they are also found on other parts of the mouth, such as the roof and sides of the mouth, and the throat.
