An acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions. Because of this, in anacidic solution there are more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions. This means the more acidic a food is, the more hydrogen ions are available to trigger the sour taste receptors. Abase is a substance that accepts hydrogen ions.
