Tiny structures called papillae cover tongues, facilitating touch and taste sensitivity and more.

舌头上覆盖着被称为乳突的微小结构，有助于触觉和味觉的灵敏度等。

Those papillae are not your taste buds.

那些乳突不是你的味蕾。

Papillae were only a little longer in lions than in cats, noted Noel and David Hu, an associate professor at Georgia Tech. Their findings were published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

亚理工学院副教授诺尔和·表示，狮子的乳突只比猫长一点点。他们的研究现表在了《美国国家科学院院刊》上。

Rainbow lorikeet papillae bloom into feathery projections that sop up nectar.

彩虹吸蜜鹦鹉的乳突绽放成羽状突起，吸收花蜜。

Every individual species out there has more than a dozen shapes and sizes of those bumps to create fine-tuned, neurally controlled camouflage.

每一种头足类动物都有十几种不同形状和小的乳突，以创造出精细调节的神经控制伪装。

The tongue is covered with a series of cone-shaped small projections called papillae in which there are taste buds that can sense flavors, such as sweet, bitter, salty, and sour.

舌头上覆盖着一系列被称为乳突的圆锥形小凸起，其中有味蕾可以感受到味道，如甜味，苦味，咸味和酸味。

Periscope up, and you've got those beautiful papillae.

潜望镜升起，你就能看到那些漂亮的乳突。

And then we look in a little more detail, you can see the individual papillae come up, and there are little ridges on there, so it's a papilla on papilla and so forth.

然后我们再仔细看看，可以看到一个个乳突凸起， 上面还有一些小棱脊，所以是乳突上的乳突等等。

So there are 25 million color organs called " chromatophores" in the skin, and all those bumps out there, which we call " papillae, " and they're all neurally controlled and can change instantaneously.

所以皮肤中有2500万个被称为“色素细胞” 的色彩器官，而那些我们称为“乳突” 的小突起，都是由神经系统控制的， 可以瞬间改变。
