The cochlea of the inner ear contains a membranous tube called the cochlear duct. This duct is filled with fluid that vibrates when the sound waves from the stirrup (stapes) bone strike against it. In the cochlear duct are delicate cells which make up the organ of Corti. These hair-like cells pick up the vibrations caused by sound waves against the fluid, then they transmit them through the auditory nerve to the hearing center of the brain.
No, the cochlea is located in the inner ear, not the middle ear.
Yes, the cochlea is located in the inner ear.
The cochlea in your ear is responsible for converting sound vibrations into electrical signals that can be interpreted by your brain.

The cochlea is to the ear as the retina is to the eye for transduction. Both the cochlea and retina are sensory organs that convert external stimuli (sound for the cochlea, light for the retina) into neural signals that can be processed by the brain.

it is in the cochlea of the inner ear
i think it is the cochlea
cochlea
The cochlea is a spiral-shaped organ in the inner ear filled with fluid. When sound waves enter the ear, they cause the fluid in the cochlea to move, stimulating hair cells. These hair cells convert the movement into electrical signals that are sent to the brain via the auditory nerve, where they are processed as sound.

The cochlea is to the ear as the retina is to the eye for transduction. Both the cochlea and retina are sensory organs that convert external stimuli (sound for the cochlea, light for the retina) into neural signals that can be processed by the brain.
A burst eardrum is when the thin flap of skin in your ear leading towards your cochlea vibrates too much and tears, this causes the liquid from your cochlea to flow out of your ear, this can be very painful and lead to not being able to work out which way up you are as the liquid inside your cochlea tells you what way up you are by settling.
