- receptors identify taste profile
- nerves send information to thebrain

UMAMI-glutamates
SOUR TASTE -concentration Of H+
BITTERNESS - caffeine, theo bromine, phenolic compounds
SALTY - Na+ in NaCl
sourness and saltiness
-
incl ion channels,
being mediated by the ENaC
NaCl attached to the receptor, then lead to the channel to be open. then the sodium ions (for saltiness) or H+ (sour) will enter the channel and lead the cell to be depolarized. then leads to the creation of action potentiol that sends signal to the brain
