The cochlea; sound wave are transferred through the ear canal and vibrated the ear drum which is connected to the cochlea and amplified the sound wave. When the sound wave reached the cochlea, sound wave is converted into nerve impulse and transferred through the nerve to the brain.
Receptor is a converter of stimulus to electrical nerve impulse ; cochlea converted sound wave into nerve impulse and so cochlea is the sensory receptor of the ear.

What are the sensory receptors of the eyes ears nose skin and tongue?
The receptors of the eye are photo receptors, the ear has auditory receptors, the nose has olfactory (smell) receptors, the skin has tactile (touch)and thermo- (temperature) receptors and the tongue has gustatory (taste) receptors.

What are the sensory receptors for the the ear?
The inner ear is made up of multiple parts to amplify sound and to determine sound frequencies. The Cochlea is a spiral shaped portion of the inner ear which contains tiny "hair cells" which are the actual sensory receptors. Repeated loud noises can actually damage or destroy these hair cells causing permanent hearing loss.The ear also is used for balance, using a portion of the ear called the vestibule or vestibular system. This also has hair cells for sensory receptors that are triggered by motion.
What is the sensory receptor in the eyes What is the sensory receptor in the nose What is the sensory receptors in the tongue What is the sensory receptors in the skin?
the sensory receptors for the eyes are the cornea and the optic nerve
What part of the ear contains the sensory receptors for hearing and balance?
In the mammalian ear the sensory receptors (hair cells) for hearing are in the cochlea and for ballance are in the semicircular canals. Both the cochlea and semicircular canals are part of the inner ear.inner
Cells called what detect changes in the environment known as stimuli?
they are called receptors.
How are sensory receptors classified?
somatic receptors and special receptors
What do sensory receptors enable you to do?
Sensory receptors enable you to respond to stimuli in the environment of an organism. Some sensory receptors respond to taste and smell while others respond to physical stimuli.

The eyes, nose, skin and tongue HAVE sensory receptors.
Are the eyes ears nose tongue and skin are sensory receptors?
