Expert Solution & Answer
Trending nowThis is a popular solution!
Students have asked these similar questions
which submodality of taste is sensitive to the ph of saliva
Taste receptors in the toungue are ipsilateral to the side of the gustatory cortex on which their input is processed.
True
False
The taste of salt is detected by passage of sodium ions through open
channels causing the release of neurotransmitters and signalling craniofacial
sensory afferent fibers. This taste modality is best described as
lonotropic
Diatropic
Isotropic
Metabotropic
