Answer: The correct answer is -

C) Chemoreceptors.

Explanation:

Chemoreceptors are the type of sensory receptors that are capable of detecting chemical substances, which may be into mouth, inhaled via nose, or present in the body itself.

Thus, sensory receptors present on the taste buds to detect chemicals are knowns as chemoreceptors.

Therefore, option C) is the right answer.
