The Inner Ear (Cochlea)
... For an object to produce a sound, it has to vibrate matter. This matter could be solid like the earth or liquid like water, but most of the time it is gaseous in the form of air. When the item vibrates, it starts a chain reaction and moves the particles directly surrounding it, which in turn cause t ...

The Ears, Hearing and Balance Your ears do the remarkable job of
... tiny bones in the middle ear to move too. The last of these bones, the stapes, passes on the vibrations through another membrane to the cochlea. When the cochlea receives the vibrations, the fluid inside it moves. As the fluid moves, it causes the sensory cells to create an electrical signal. This e ...

... The organ of Corti. The organ of Corti is located on the basilar membrane. It contains the hair cells (auditory receptor cells). The upper surface of each hair cell is covered with small hair-like structures called stereocilia. The base of each hair cell is contacted by processes of one or more audi ...

Messages from the eyes travel through the optic nerves to the brain Once in the brain, the pieces of visual information are sorted, processed, and integrated to produce a 3-D image Aspects of sight such as movement, colour, depth, and shape are handled by different parts of the occipital lobe This s ...

Fovea is most sensitive area of retina because - high concentration of cones - thinning of cell layers over fovea Lateral inhibition in retina lead bipolar cells to exhibit on-center and off-center receptive fields Photoreceptors -> bipolar cells -> ganglion cells -> LGN -> V1 Layer 4 (area 17) Nasa ...

Auditory system
The auditory system is the sensory system for the sense of hearing. It includes both the sensory organs (the ears) and the auditory parts of the sensory system.
