47) Sensation,perception.

The sensation is obtained by the sensory receptors seeing stimuli and then processing of these sensation occurs by brain which is involved in selection, organization and interpretation. Motivation is associated with the influence or impact on the system.

48)Chemical in solution.

The taste and olfactory senses depends on the chemical receptors ,dissolved in the saliva.The olfactory information traveling from back of mouth is named as retronasal olfaction and through nostril ,named as orthonasal olfaction.

50)sour.

Sweet,bitter and umami is detected by the G-coupled taste receptors.T1R and T2R are the taste receptors mediated through the GPCR. The sour and salty tastes are detected via the ion channel activation.

51)Glucagon ,insulin.

The beta cells of pancreas secretes the insulin when high level of blood glucose is detected in order to lowers the glucose level in bloodstream.Whereas the alpha cells of pancreas secretes the glucagon when low level of blood glucose is sensed and helps in increasing the blood glucose.Thus, insulin and glucagon hormones are  secreted by pancreas having opposite function in regulation of blood glucose.
