  2. Cerebral cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_cortex

    The cerebral cortex is the outer covering of the surfaces of the cerebral hemispheres and is folded into peaks called gyri, and grooves called sulci. In the human brain, it is between 2 and 3-4 mm. thick, [8] and makes up 40% of the brain's mass. [2] 90% of the cerebral cortex is the six-layered neocortex whilst the other 10% made up of three ...

  3. Taste bud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taste_bud

    Taste bud. Taste buds are clusters of taste receptor cells, which are also known as gustatory cells. [ 1] The taste receptors are located around the small structures known as papillae found on the upper surface of the tongue, soft palate, upper esophagus, the cheek, and epiglottis. These structures are involved in detecting the five elements of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_nervous_system

    The sensory nervous system is a part of the nervous system responsible for processing sensory information. A sensory system consists of sensory neurons (including the sensory receptor cells), neural pathways, and parts of the brain involved in sensory perception and interoception. Commonly recognized sensory systems are those for vision ...

  6. Cortex (hair) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortex_(hair)

    Anatomy of hair. The cortex of the hair shaft is located between the hair cuticle and medulla and is the thickest hair layer. It contains most of the hair's pigment, giving the hair its color. The major pigment in the cortex is melanin, which is also found in skin. The distribution of this pigment varies from animal to animal and person to person.

  7. Lobes of the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobes_of_the_brain

    Five lobes visible. The lobes of the brain are the major identifiable zones of the human cerebral cortex, and they comprise the surface of each hemisphere of the cerebrum. The two hemispheres are roughly symmetrical in structure, and are connected by the corpus callosum. They traditionally have been divided into four lobes, but are today ...

  8. Tongue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tongue

    The tongue is a muscular organ in the mouth of a typical tetrapod. It manipulates food for chewing and swallowing as part of the digestive process, and is the primary organ of taste. The tongue's upper surface (dorsum) is covered by taste buds housed in numerous lingual papillae. It is sensitive and kept moist by saliva and is richly supplied ...

  9. Outline of the human brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_the_human_brain

    Trochlear nerve (cranial nerve 4) – eye rotation. Trigeminal nerve (cranial nerve 5) – sensation from the face and certain motor functions such as biting and chewing. Abducens nerve (cranial nerve 6) – certain eye rotation. Facial nerve (cranial nerve 7) – facial expression and taste sensations from the tongue.
