Tongue: Circumvallate papillae

Along the lateral edges of the circumvallate papillae are oval taste buds, which access the oral cavity through a taste pore.  Taste buds are composed of supportive cells and neuroepithelial cells that are innervated by sensory neurons of the facial nerve (cranial nerve VII).  40x, 400x
