Question
Which of the following is an example of a chemoreceptor?
Hint:
Chemoreception is the process by which organisms respond to chemical stimuli in their environments that depends primarily on the senses of taste and smell.
The correct answer is:
Chemical receptors, or chemoreceptors, are sensitive to substances taken into the mouth (taste or gustatory receptors), inhaled through the nose (smell or olfactory receptors), or found in the body itself (detectors of glucose or of acid-base balance in the blood).
