Document Summary
Smell and taste chemical senses, sensations arise. The secretion moistens the surface of the olfactory epithelium and dissolves odorants so that transduction can occur. 8. odorant binds to an olfactory receptor protein in the plasma membrane of an olfactory hair olfactory receptor protein is coupled to a membrane protein called a g protein. Chapter 17: the special senses olfactory (i) nerves 40 or so bundles of axons collectively form the right and left nerves. Anatomy of taste buds and papillae taste bud receptors for sensations of taste, found on tongue, soft palate, pharynx and epiglottis. An oval body consisting of three kinds of epithelial cells: supporting cells surround about 50 gustatory receptor cells in each taste bud gustatory receptor cells life span of about 10 days. It provides a rough texture to the upper surface of the tongue. Vallate (circumvallate) papillae 12 large circular papillae that forms and inverted v-shaped row at the back of the tongue.
