Furthermore i will describe each sense, and how they work. First taste, the tongue is the body part that helps us sense taste. The tongue consists of taste bud which are (mushroom like projections) which are specific receptors for sense of taste.

They are sweet located front middle, sour located middle sides, salty located front side/tip, bitter located back, and umami located posterior pharynx. The cranial nerves that are associated with our taste sense are VII Facial located within the tongue, IX Glossopharyngeal located within the tongue, and X Vagus located within the pharynx.
