Answer:
Fungiform
Step-by-step explanation:
The papillae located mainly on the tip and sides of the tongue that contain only a few taste buds each are the Fungiform papillae.
The fungiform papillae are broad flat structures that house taste buds in the central portion of the dorsum (back) of the tongue. These papillae were thought to resemble a fungus: a little mushroom. The literal meaning of Fungiform is mushroom-shaped.
