Question Answer
Stimuli that activates the taste sensation are called _____. Tastants.
Taste is also called ______. Gustation.
Five tastes and portion of tongue: 1. sour (sides of tongue) 2. sweet ( anterior crescent) 3. bitter (back of tongue) 4. salty (anterior and side) 5. oleogustus (fatty)
Taste cells are located in taste buds. There are about ______ taste celle per taste bud. They wear out every _____. Total of _______ taste buds. 100. wear out every 1-2 weeks. 4,000 taste buds.
T/F: The taste cells are first order neurons. F. The 1st order neurons are located in the afferent nerve fibers at the bottom of taste cells.
______ papillae are best stimulated by bitter, while ____ papillae are best stimulated by sour and salty, _____ papillae are best stimulated by sweet, salty and umami. Bitter: circumvallate Sour and salty: foliate sweet, sour, umami: fungiform
The circumvallate papillae and foliate papillae are located in the _____ of tongue, they are innvervated by ________. posterior 2/3. Innervated by CN IX glossopharyngeal.
The fungiform papillae are located in the _____ of the tongue, they are innervated by ________. Anterior 2/3. Innervated by CN VII facial+intermediate.
_______ is in charge of the larynx, epiglottis, and pharynx movements. CN X (vagus)
T/F: There is NO decussation in taste pathway. T.
Map out the 3-neuron road map of taste See slides
Cell body of 1st degree sensory neuron lie in the ________. PNS ganglion.
Location of 2nd degree cell body lies in the ____________ located in the (caudal/rostral) medulla. Rostral solitary nucleus located in the rostral medulla.
The tract where the 2nd degree axons ascend is ________. Central tegmental tract.
2nd degree neuron synapses with 3rd degree neuron in the _______ of thalamus. VPM
Where does the 3rd degree neuron go to? 1. insula 2. frontal operculum
Solitary nucleus is also called the _______. Frontal operculum and insula are also called the ______. gustatory nucleus. gustatory cortex.
Map out the pathway of taste on 1) cross-section cuts of the brainstem. 2) 2-d sketches of brainstem and tongue. Anterior 2/3 tongue--> chorda tympani nerve (cb in geniculate ganglion) --> intermediate nerve (CN VII) Posterior 1/3 tongue (cb in inferior glossopharyngeal ganglion) --> glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) Pharynx/larynx/ epiglottis --> cb in inferior vagal ganglion --> vagus nerve (CN X)
Solitary tract contains the (1st degree/ 2nd degree) axons from CN VII, IX, and X) 1st.
Solitary nucleus contains (1st degree/ 2nd degree) cell bodies. 2nd degree
Identify central tegmental tract on the cross-section of the rostral medulla. See slide 7.
Identify location of central tegmental tract in caudal and rostral pons/mid brain See slide 9/10
The 3rd order axon passes through the _____ limb of the internal capsule. posterior
Air from outside into nose is called _______ while air from pharynx to nose is called ______. Orthonasal Retronasal
Olfactory sensory neurons are _____receptors. chemo
The 1st order sensory neurons are (monopolar/bipolar), (myelinated/unmyelinated) neuron. Bipolar, unmyelinated.
The olfactory nerve endings reside in the _________. Mucosa.
The olfactory nerve fascicles have to travel through _____ to get into the telencephalon. Cribriform plate of ethmoid bone.
T/F: There is no ganglion for the olfactory nerves. T.
The olfactory bulb lies in the ___________. Telencephalon.
The olfactory circuit is a __-neuron circuit, with ___ order neurons. 2 2
What are the goals of the olfactory circuit? 1. sharpens detection of ordors 2. visceral (ANS, appetite, behaviour) ANS, appetite and behaviour. 3. emotional goals 4. discriminate/conscious perception and higher order discrimination 5. memory function

Draw the odorant pathway. Which tract does it travel in? See slide 15. Olfactory tract.
How many different orders can we smell? 10,000 diff smells.
Turn over rate of olfactory neurons. 1-2 months.
The dendrites synapse with the 2nd order neuron's in the ________. Glomeruli.
We can differentiate about ______ ordors. 10,000
Collection of active glomeruli for a specific ordor is called the _________. Odorant map
Where do the 2nd order axons in the olfactory tract project to? 1. anterior olfactory nucleus 2. amygdala 3. olfactory tubercle 4. piriform cortex (parahippocampal gyrus) 5. hippocampus in entorhinal cortex
______ is associated with sharpening detection of chemicals Anterior olfactory nucleus
____ is associated with emotion related to the smell. amygdala (limbic system)
_______ is associated with visceral responses such as ANS, appetite, and behavior related to the smell. olfactory tubercle
__________ is associated with 1st degree sensory perception. piriform cortex aka the orbitofrontal olfactory cortex (in the hippocampal gyrus)
_________ is associated with memory with the smell. entorhinal cortex (relaying to hippocampus)
The olfactory tract splits into ____ and ___________. medial and lateral striae
Locate the uncus, piriform cortex, and other structures in the inferior view of the cerebrum. See slide 17.
