Frage 5

Frage
How is the mechanical energy transduced into neural energy within the organ of corti?
Antworten
  • Cochleic cells are pushed up, bending the stereocilia against the tectorial membrane, causing an action potential
  • Cochleic cells are pushed up, bending the stereocilia against the basilar membrane, causing an action potential
  • Hair cells are pushed up, bending the stereocilia against the basilar membrane, causing an action potential
  • Hair cells are pushed up, bending the stereocilia against the tectorial membrane, causing an action potential

Antworten
  • To relieve the pressure in the fluid filling the vestibular and tympanic canals
  • To let osmosis occur between the vestibular and tympanic canals
  • To let osmosis occur between the scala media and tympanic canal
