All of the following are stops on the pathway of taste signals except: A. Taste receptors
B. The prefrontal cortex
C. Cranial nerves
D. The thalamus
The correct answer is B. The prefrontal cortex.
The pathway of taste signals typically travels from taste receptors to cranial nerves, the thalamus, and finally to the gustatory cortex (not the prefrontal cortex). The prefrontal cortex is involved in higher-level processing and decision-making, but it is not a direct stop in the pathway for taste signals.
