ONKI3 | Medical Subject Headings

The ONKI is provided as a part of the ONKI Living Lab - an open lab for testing the latest semantic web technologies in practice, with real users like you. Currently, over 10 000 people are using ONKI each month.

We hope you like the ONKI service and enjoy using it for your purposes!

If you encounter any problems or have improvement ideas, please contact the ONKI team. We are also very much interested in your success stories in using ONKI - please share your experiences!

Annotation:	chemoreceptors on the tongue, palate & pharynx X
Scope note:	Small sensory organs which contain gustatory receptor cells, basal cells, and supporting cells. Taste buds in humans are found in the epithelia of the tongue, palate, and pharynx. They are innervated by the CHORDA TYMPANI NERVE (a branch of the facial nerve) and the GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL NERVE. X
