Adrenergic neurons in sheep brain demonstrated by immunohistochemistry with antibodies to phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PNMT) and dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (DBH): absence of the C1 cell group in the sheep brain.

abstract：:The act of tasting is the product of inseparable integrative behavior consisting of multi-sensory processing and orolingual motor coordination. Often tasting-induced brain activity is looked at in a reductionist manner as a set of isolated components. However, brain activity as a whole during tasting may not simply be...
