In the cochlea?
Sound vibrations are converted to nerve impulses :)
What part of the inner ear do the receptors convert sounds vibrations into nerve impulses?
Cochlea
How do sound vibrations carried from the ear to the nerve cells?
Sound waves enter through the outer ear, then sound waves move through the ear canal. Next sound waves strike the eardrum, causing it to vibrate, then vibrations enter the middle ear. Then the hammer picks up the vibrations, then vibrations are passed to the anvil. Next the vibrations are transmitted to the stirrup, then a vibrating membrane transmits vibrations to the inner ear, and then vibrations are channeled into the cochlea. Then nerve cells detect vibrations and convert them to electrical impulses, then electrical impulses are transmitted to the brain. Then the brain interprets electrical impulses as sound.

What auditory nerve is responsible for?
The auditory nerve is responsible for relaying vibrations from the cochlea, in the inner ear, to the brain as electrical impulses. The auditory centre of the brain then interprets these as sound.
Where does the spinal nerve take nerve impulses?
the spinal nerve sends nerve impulses away from the CNS
Are Nerve impulses electrical signaled?
Nerve impulses are electrical signals.
What is the message called that a neuron carries?
nerve impulses
What nerve is a mixed cranial nerve that conducts sensory impulses from and motor impulses from and motor impulses to the thoracic and abdominal viscera?
vagus nerve
What does Mv means in Nerve Impulses?
Nerve impulses are measured in MiliVolts (mv)
What is the colchlea and what does it do?
the cochlea is a vital part in your inner ear that transforms vibrations coming from the oval window ( preceeding area of inner ear that receives vibrations) into electrochemical impulses and travel down the auditory nerve into the brain for processing.
Do fish heads survive decapitation or is it just nerve impulses?
No, that is just nerve impulses
