- How does gustation (taste) contribute to flavor?arrow_forwardResearchers have studied the perception of taste. Which of the following is an accurate conclusion? As a person ages, his or her sensitivity to taste perception remains unchanged. Children under the age of 1 cannot perceive taste differences. Taste receptors can be found throughout the mouth.
