What part of the cochlea is affected by the bass singer?
high frequency sounds at base of cochlea. encounter sound first and deteriorate first
When you hear sound which vibrates first. Your eardrum or the fluid in the cochlea?
Sound begins at the eardrum and ends at the brain.
What part of the brain maintaines balance while you walk?
In the ear, you have got three semicircular canals. To explain about their position you have to first understand the three dimensions in space. If you are sitting in a room. Go to the corner of the room. Here all three walls are connected to each other at right angles. Semicircular canals lie in these three planes. They are connected to each other at Utricle and Saccule. All of them contain some fluid. When the position of the head changes, there is movement of this fluid. This movement is perceived by the hair cells present in Utricle and Saccule.For verticle position you have receptors in Utricle and for horizontal position you have got receptors in Saccule. They send signals to the Vestibular nucleus present in the brain,via the Vestibulocochlear nerve,at the rate of 100/sec to several hundred/seconds.(The eighth cranial nerve.) Then you have got two such apparatuses in your two ears, giving you stereoscopic effect adding to the efficacy of the the orientation of position of your head. All these apparatus lie in the Petrous part of the temporal bone. You have other signals, like position sense sensations from all joints of your body. They add to the efficacy of the system. Then your eyes also provide signals of your position.(Sometimes they momentarily cheat you, when you think your train is moving forward when actually train to the side of you is moving backwards.) So mainly the position and level of the fluid in the semicircular canals added to other sense receptors give you your sense of balance. They all gather at the Vestibular nucleus present in brain.(The size of these semicircular canals is very small. They are only about 2 mm across.)
Is the part of the ear that is set into vibration by vibrating air molecules the cochlea?
The eardrum is the first thing that vibrates in response to vibrating air or "sound". The cochlea is the last step in the process, and instead of vibrating it is filled with fluid that moves in response to vibration on a small window on the side. This moves the cochlear fluid and then is transferred to the brain through small hairs inside the organ. Three tiny bones (Malleus, Incus, and Stapes) transfer the vibration from the eardrum to the cochlea.
What receptors are associated with balance?
there is a nerve within the ear that helps with balance. often when you get seasick this nerve within the ear is thrown off balnce and this is what causes you to be seasick. once on land the nerve regains balance and you dont feel seasick anymore

Can turtles get dizzy?
Yes it would since they have a similar anatomy to humans in the inner ear, that is they also have semicircular canals and a cochlea. Actually the first inner ear appeared in the fossil record more than 420 Million years ago. Birds are a relatively young animals in evolutionary terms, having appeared only around 150 million years ago.

What is the formula for the volume of water held in a semicircular trough?
To calculate the volume of water in a semicircular trough, one should figure out the area of the cross section (the semicircle) first. Then, this number should be multiplied by the length of the trough.
What are the most common uses of a quonset hut?
The Quonset Hut is lightweight prefabricated semicircular structure made of corrugated steel. The design was based on the British Nissan Hut. The name comes Quonset Point where the huts were first made.
What was Fulton's first patent?
It was for a dredging device for canals.

Sound begins at the eardrum and ends at the brain.

Hittites
