The inner ear contains the receptors for sound which convert fluid motion into action potentials that are sent to the brain to enable sound perception. The airborne sound waves must be transferred into the inner ear for hearing to occur.

Why do you get burning feeling in your lateral part of heel when you extend your knee?
It could be a number of things ,including action potentials that doen'st get enough electrolytes to fire it up.If it gets painful, consult your physician.
What part of the ear changes vibrations into nerve signals?
The cochlea.
Which part of the yeast cell converts the nutrients the sugar into energy?

What part of the ear changes vibrations into electrical signals?
Organ of Corti
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.
Where does an action potential start?
Action potentials are generated on a part of the neuron called the 'axon hillock' - the proximal most portion of the axon.
How does your eardrum process sound?
It doesn't process anything, it is a part of a system (eardrum, 3 bones of the middle ear, and a thin part of your skull) that converts vibrations in the air into vibrations in the fluids of your inner ear. Those you can hear.
What are cartridge turntables used for?
Cartridge turntables are used to play records. The cartridge is the part of the turntable that converts the vibrations picked up from the record into music.
What part of a telephone detects sound waves?
The tranducer/microphone converts the vibrations of the waves into electrical audio signals, the vibrations cause a diaphragm inside the transducer to vibrate which in turns create pulses of current that can be interpreted later as the recorded audio.
How does the long axon help in a nerve cell?
The axons are long so that action potentials can be sent from one part of the body to another very quickly. If instead of one long axon we had loads of individual cells there would be a much bigger delay because the action potentials would have to be converted to chemical signals very fequently and that takes time.

In which part of the ear receives the vibrations in the air?
The eardrum receives the vibrations of the air.
What part of the ear transmits the vibrations to the cochlea?
The eardrum
What part of the ear changes vibrations into nerve signals?
The cochlea.
What is a part of a solar panel that absorbs light and converts it into electrical energy?
The photocell is the part of a solar panel that absorbs light and converts it into electrical energy.
Part of ear where cochlea converts waves?
That part is called as inner ear.
Which part of the eye converts light into electrical energy?
The retina converts light into nerve impulses, which are NOT electrical in nature.
