Final answer:

The tongue detects six different taste sensations with specific receptors for each taste, located in taste buds on the tongue's surface.


Explanation:

The tongue detects six different taste sensations: sweet, salty, sour, bitter, piquancy (spicy), and umami. Each taste has its own receptor type that responds only to that taste, located within taste buds on the tongue's surface. For example, bitter taste often indicates a dangerous substance, like a poison, while sweet taste signifies a high-energy food.
