TermDefinition
Fungiform papillae large, mushroom-shaped bumps found in the anterior two thirds of the tongue surface; each one contains one or a few taste buds
Circumvallate papillae huge, dome-shaped bumps that form a transverse row near the back of the tongue surface; each one contains thousands of taste buds
Foliate papillae —red, leaflike ridges of mucosa on the lateral edges of the posterior tongue surface; each contains about a hundred or so taste buds
Filiform papillae —bumps with tiny, threadlike projections; these papillae are scattered among the fungiform papillae; they do not contain taste buds but allow us to experience food texture and “feel”
olfactory epithelium is located in the most superior portion of the nasal cavity
olfactory epithelium consists of yellow-colored epithelial sup-port cells, basal cells, and bipolar-type olfactory sensory neurons
Olfaction is our sense of smell.
taste buds are the sense organs that respond to gustatory stim-uli, or taste stimuli.
papillae most are associated with small, elevated projections on the tongue
