The sense of hearing depends on which specialized cells?
The mechanoreceptors responsible for the sense of hearing are contained in the Organ of Corti. It has 16,000 hearing receptor cells located on the basilar membrane of each inner ear.A movement of the hair cells against tectorial membrane stimulates dendrites that terminate around the base of hair cells and initiates an impulse conduction by the cochlear nerve to the brainstem.Impulses pass through 'relay stations' in the nuclei in medulla, pons, midbrain, and thalamus before reaching the auditory area of temporal lobe of the brain.
