This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: gustation-JC, brain creates experience of Bitterness, epiglottis contains papillae, taste receptor cells detect bitter tastants, Gustation (taste) involves the epiglottis, brain creates experience of Sourness, sweet tastants bind to G-protein-coupled taste receptor, protons (H+) blocks potassium channel, brain creates experience of Umami, sodium (Na+) passes through amiloride-sensitive sodium channel, Gustation (taste) involves the palate, synaptic vesicles stimulates gustatory afferent axon, taste receptor cells detect sweet tastants, palate contains papillae, amino acids bind to G-protein-coupled taste receptor, brain creates experience of Saltiness, Gustation (taste) involves the nasal cavity, second messanger system activates voltage-gated sodium channel, taste receptor cells detect protons (H+), second messanger system activates voltage-gated calcium channel, papillae contains taste buds
