Final answer:

Taste receptors in taste buds on the tongue respond to chemicals in food to create perceptions of different tastes.


Explanation:

Taste receptors are located in taste buds on the tongue, specifically in the tiny papillae. These receptors respond to various chemicals in food, which when binding with taste cells, create our perception of different tastes such as sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and umami. The taste cells then send signals to the brain for interpretation.
