Vestibular System

Figure 15 shows such frequency distribution along the length of the cochlea for both the incoming and outgoing waves. The strength of nerve signals also depends on the volume of the sound. This is interpreted by the brain as loudness. It is believed that tone is an interpretation of the brain based on the distribution of hair cells stimulated.

CH 15 Spiral Organ of Corti

Color-enhanced scanning electron micrograph of the inside of a guinea pig inner ear showing the hearing organ, or cochlea. Running along the spiral structure are rows of sensory cells which respond to different frequencies of sound. The whole organ is just a few millimeters long.

Sound Waves - Parts of the Ear: An alternative to the "Structure of the Ear" activity would be to have separate cells for each part of the ear, rather than one large diagram. Have your students bring together their ideas about the structure of the ear using this spider map.

The human ear consists of three parts the outer ear, middle ear and inner ear. The ear canal of the outer ear is separated from the air filled tympanic cavity of the middle ear by the eardrum. The middle ear contains the three small bones the ossicles inv #Freephoto #Healthcare #Medical #Anatomy #Human #patients #Hospital #bodypart #Education #Scince #Life #exam #Lab #Image #nurse #doctor #Research #effects #nurse #nursing #nursingstudent #student #prenursing #prenursingstudent #cna #rn...

The ear has three main sections - the outer, middle, and inner ear. The outer ear collects sound waves and directs them through the ear canal to the eardrum. Vibrations of the eardrum are transmitted by the ossicles to the cochlea of the inner ear. Inside the cochlea, vibrations stimulate hair cells which convert the mechanical energy into electrical signals sent to the brain for interpretation as sound. - Download as a PPTX, PDF or view online for free
