What do you call the nerve of the nose that sends a message to the brain?
gustatory nerve
What is the gustatory nerve function?
This nerve is one of the 12 cranial nerves. It is for the sense of taste. This sense is important because many poisons are bitter.

What is the transmissor for the sense of taste?
The gustatory pathway has a more complicated course. There are more fiber tracts involved in the transmission of the neural impulses for taste. The facial nerve transmits gustatory signals or messages from the anterior two-third of the tongue. However, for the posterior one-third of the tongue,the glossopharyngeal nerve is responsible for the transmission of the gustatory signals along the pathway.
What cortex does the frontal lobe analyzes sensory information carried by nerve impulses from the tongue and taste receptors?
Gustatory
What is the name of the cortex that detects taste?
The primary gustatory cortex. Special sensory information for taste reaches the gustatory cortex via the chorda tympani and greater petrosal branch of the facial nerve, the lingual branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve, and the superior laryngeal branch of the vagus nerve. The special sensory information for taste originates in taste buds located on the upper surface of the tongue, soft palate, pharynx, and the upper part of the esophagus.
Name the five cranial sensory nerves each belonging to a different sense?
Olfactory nerve (sense of smell) Optic nerve (sense of vision) Vestibulocochlear nerve (sense of hearing and balance) Trigeminal nerve (sense of touch and pain for the face) Gustatory nerve (sense of taste)
Which cranial nerve's carry gustatory information?
Brances of the Facial (VII), Glossopharyngeal (IX), and Vagus (X) cranial nerves carry information about taste
What structures from the gustatory pathway?
The gustatory pathway involves taste receptors on the tongue, which send signals via the facial nerve (CN VII), glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX), and vagus nerve (CN X) to the brainstem. Taste signals are then relayed to the thalamus and eventually to the gustatory cortex in the brain for interpretation.
Gustatory is having a sense of taste?
gustatory is idont know
Where in the brain is taste interpreted?
In the insula of the cerebrum area of the brain
What cranial nerve detects tastes?
Facial nerve Glossopharyngeal nerve Vagus nerve
