Answer:

Taste receptors.

Explanation:

When activated, the receptor most likely prompting the production of saliva is the taste receptor. When food enters the mouth, the salivary glands produce the saliva upon the sensation of taste. The secretion of saliva (salivation) is mediated by parasympathetic stimulation; acetylcholine is the active neurotransmitter and binds to muscarinic receptors in the glands, leading to increased salivation.
