The oval window is connected directly to which passageway?
cochlea *scala vestibuli* and the round window is directly connected to the scala tympani (where sound dissipates)"The scala vestibuli is continuous with the vestibule near the base of the cochlea, where it abuts the oval window."From: Human Anatomy, 5th Edition Marieb, Mallatt, and Wilhelm
What is the function of the scala vestibuli?
it is responsible for conducting sound vibrations. Both the scala tympani and scala vestibuli are filled with the fluid known as perilymph.
What is carry vibrations from eardrum to perilymph?
Vibration of the tympanic membrane causes movement of the ear ossicles, resulting in the in-and-out vibration of the stapes in the oval window. That touches the perilymph in the scala vestibuli.
The structure that actually contains the hearing receptors is?
The cochlea
What is the fluid- filled tunnel that contains the receptors for hearing?
The Cochlea

What is the area found between the scala vestibuli and the scala tympani?
cochlear duct
What area is found between the scala vestibuli and the scala tympany?
cochlear duct
What area is found between the scala vestibuli and scala tympani?
cochlear duct
What is periymph?
Perilymph is an extracellular fluid located within the cochlea (part of the ear) in 2 of its 3 compartments; the scala tympani and scala vestibuli. The ionic composition of perilymph is comparable to that of plasma and cerebrospinal fluid. The major cation of perilymph is sodium.
Is it true or false that The cochlea is a liquid-filled cavity in the inner ear.?
The walls of the hollow cochlea are made of bone, with a thin, delicate lining of epithelial tissue.
What is the superior cavity of the cochlea?
Scala vestibule
What contains the cochlea?
the cochlea contains bone
In the human body field what is the fluid perilymph?
Perilymph is a fluid present in the scala vestibuli and scala tympani which are the perilymph compartments of the inner ear. It has the same ionic concentration as the extracellular fluid present in the entire body
What does the cochlea contain?
the cochlea contains bone
What is carry vibrations from eardrum to perilymph?
Vibration of the tympanic membrane causes movement of the ear ossicles, resulting in the in-and-out vibration of the stapes in the oval window. That touches the perilymph in the scala vestibuli.
