| Each taste corresponds to | a specific type of taste receptor which sets off a G protein reaction, causing the neuron to depolarise and fire action potentials |
| Sweet Tastes | correspond to specialised receptor proteins which bind to sugar |
| Salty tastes | detect concentration of sodium ions |
| Sour tastes | detect concentration of hydrogen ions |
| Bitter tastes | have specialised receptor proteins which bind to a variety of substances |
