What else can I help you with?
What happens when auditory ossicles vibrate the oval window and set the endolymph in motion?
The now fluid vibrations will stimulate the mecanoreceptors turning the vibrations into electrical energy which will then be sent by the auditory nerve (cranial nerve #8) to the brain for interpretation.
What is the role of the emdolymph of the semicircular canals in activating the receptors during angular motion?
Each canal is filled with a fluid called endolymph and contains a motion sensor with little hairs (cilia) whose ends are embedded in a gelatinous structure called the cupula. As the skull twists in any direction, the endolymph is thrown into different sections of the canals. The cilia detect when the endolymph rushes past, and a signal is then sent to the brain.
Where are the 3 auditory ossicles that transmit vibratory motion located?
The 3 ossicles are "little bones" found in the middle ear.Their function is to transmit and amplify the sound vibrations from the tympanic membrane (eardrum) to the oval window.They are the smallest bones in the human body, and each one has its own name:tympannic side = malleus or hammermiddle = incus or anviloval window side = stapes or stirrup
Which waves causes the medium to vibrate only in a directions parallel to the wave motion?
Transverse waves cause the medium to vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the wave motion. Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, cause the medium to vibrate in a direction parallel to the wave motion.
The three smallest bones in the human body are located in the middle ear and what are they called and what do they do?
The auditory ossicles (malleus, incus and stapes) in the middle ear are the smallest bones. They vibrate in response to the tympanic membrane and carry sound and can amplify or damp it down. This is picked up by the auditory nerve and interpreted by the brain.
Are molecules of a substance in motion only as a gas?
No, they are in motion in a liquid as well. In a solid they vibrate in place.
What is the kinetic motion of the particles in solid?
They are locked together for which they vibrate
For which type of wave does the medium vibrate perpendicular to the motion of the wave?
transverse
How can you describe the motion of the particles in a solid?
The particles are tightly packed so they vibrate.
How do you make your fingers vibrate?
To make your fingers vibrate, you can rapidly tap them on a hard surface, such as a desk or table, while keeping them relaxed. The rapid tapping motion creates a vibrating sensation in your fingers. You can also try flicking your fingers with a quick, forceful motion to make them vibrate.
What is wave in which particles in the medium vibrate in an up an and down motion?
transverse waves
In which type of waves to the particles in the medium vibrate in the same direction the wave is moving?
Transverse waves have particles that vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's motion. Longitudinal waves have particles that vibrate in the same direction that the wave is moving.
