What are the tiny hairs called on insects for hearing and sensing?
Sensilla......Oh my goodness.....it took me so long to find this answer....hope it's helpful to someone in the future.
Why should you protect your hearing?
If you don't protect your hearing, your hearing will get worse...and worse...and worse... there are little tiny hairs in your ears and loud noise will damage them. The more hairs tht are damaged, the worse your hearing will be. Hope this helps:)
How do the hearing hairs in the inner ear contribute to our sense of hearing?
The hearing hairs in the inner ear help convert sound vibrations into electrical signals that the brain can interpret as sound. These hairs detect different frequencies of sound and send signals to the brain, allowing us to hear and distinguish between various sounds.
What is the body covering of caterpillar?
Caterpillars have a hard outer covering called an exoskeleton. They have sensory hairs or bristles all over their body and holes in their sides for breathing.
What is group of hairs called?
A group of hairs is called a hank or a tress.
How does your hearing work?
Sound vibrates the inner ear to stimulate hairs in the cochlear.
What are the tiny hairs hearing and sensing?
The tiny hairs in the ear, called stereocilia, are responsible for detecting sound waves and converting them into electrical signals. These signals are then sent to the brain for processing and interpretation, allowing us to hear and sense different sounds in our environment.
What is the function of the hairs in your ears and how do they contribute to your overall hearing health?
The hairs in your ears help to trap dust and debris, preventing them from entering the ear canal and causing damage. They also play a role in amplifying and transmitting sound waves to the inner ear, which is essential for proper hearing. Overall, these hairs contribute to maintaining the health and function of your ears by protecting them and aiding in the process of hearing.
Why are the cells responsible for hearing called mechanoreceptors?
the cells which receive the signal receive "mechanical stimulation". As fluid waves, propagated when sound waves interact with the ear, travel through the cochlea tiny hairs are moved, smaller/stiffer hairs moved = higher pitch, longer/looser hairs moved = lower pitch.
Receptors for hearing are located in the?
the grasshoppers ears are located next to their eyes

Is the organ of corti the organ of hearing?
Basically, yes. The organ of Corti contains the hearing receptors (little hairs) that allow us to hear.
