What transmits sound waves to the inner ear making waves in the fluid in the cochlea?
davantae marsh
The ossicles amplify the sound. They send the sound waves to the inner ear and into the fluid-filled hearing organ (cochlea). ... The auditory nerve sends these impulses to the brain. The brain then translates these electrical impulses as sound.

Which fluid is present in the inner part of your ear known as cochlea?
The perilymph fluid
What causes the cochlea to vibrate?
The inner ear is a snail-shaped structure called the cochlea, which is filled with fluid. When the oval window vibrates, it causes the fluid in the cochlea to vibrate. This fluid surrounds a membrane running through the middle of the cochlea called the basilar membrane. The answer of your question is the Basilar Membrane.
What is a cochlea and what is its role?
The cochlea is the inner ear. It transforms sound into a message the nerves can carry to the brain.
Where in your body can you find the cochlea?
YOUR EARS : Sound comes into the inner ear as vibrations and enters the cochlea
Does the ear canal end at a tightly stretched membrain called the cochlea?
The ear canal actually ends at the eardrum. This is the tightly stretched membrane, also known as the "tympanic membrane". The cochlea is located in the inner ear and is a cavity filled with fluid.

Where are the sensory receptors of the semicircular canals located?
Both of these are in the ear. The semi-circular canals help you to balance and the cochlea transmits nerve signals to the brain. This is how you hear. The inner ear is subdivided into the vestibule, semicircular canals, and cochlea. The semicircular canals and cochlea are separate structures with different functions. The receptors for balance are in the semicircular canals, and the organ of Corti (the organ of hearing) is in the cochlea.
How does the cochlea work?
The cochlea is responsible for hearing and is filled with fluid. When the oval window vibrates the fluid in the inner ear moves around. The membrane inside the cochlea has different levels of thickness and the vibrations have different frequency and correspond to different pitches of sound that the ear interprets. The oval windows vibration frequency is transmitted through the fluid wave within the inner ear. The fluid crosses over the membrane, depending on the frequency and stimulates nerves that transmit a signal to the brain.
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 inner ear?

What is the central part of the inner ear called?
i think it is the cochlea
What is between the cochlea and the ossicles?
The last of the ossicles of the middle ear is the stapes. It delivers the sound vibrations to the oval window separating the air environment of the middle ear from the fluid environment of the inner ear. The inner ear contains the cochlea, vestibule and semicircular canal.
Name two types of fluid found in the ear?
There are two different types of fluid that are found inside the ear. Specifically, there is endolymphatic fluid in the cochlea and perilymphatic fluid found around the hair cells in the inner ear.
