    Author: Liubimova ZV, Esakov AI.
    Journal: Arkh Anat Gistol Embriol; 1979 Nov; 77(11):39-44. PubMed ID: 518330.
    Abstract:
    By means of scanning electron microscopy detailed topographic map of the cat tongue was made. It was demonstrated that besides three types of chemoreceptor formations, the dorsal surface of the cat tongue possess the same amount of additional mechanoreceptor structures. By means of registration of afferent impulses, from the lingual nerve fibres at their adequate stimulation, it was possible to determine functional role of some of them.
