Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Papillae are small bumps on the tongue that house taste buds, which contain receptors that detect different tastes such as sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami. Therefore, papillae are groups of receptors that play an important role in taste perception. Accessory structures, feature detectors, and C-fibers are not directly related to taste perception.
