Answer.

Sweet, salty, bitter, sour, astringent, pungent and umami taste.

Step-by-step explanation:

The taste buds contain receptive cells which are found on the tongue, soft palate, upper esophagus. They have microvilli(microscopic hairs) that send impulses to the brain about the taste of a substance. The sensory cells allows you to experience taste that are sweet, salty, pungent, bitter, sour, astringent.
