  1. tastebud

    A tastebud is a small sensory organ on the tongue that allows a person to perceive different tastes like sweetness, saltiness, sourness, and bitterness. They are found in the small bumps, or papillae, on the surface of the tongue and are also present in the lining of the mouth and throat. Each taste bud contains clusters of taste receptor cells that transmit signals to the brain, enabling the perception of taste.
