The perilymph can be found in the bony labyrinth, which includes the vestibule, semicircular canals, and cochlea. The endolymph, on the other hand, is found within the membranous labyrinth, which is housed within the bony labyrinth.
The fluid of the inner ear, called perilymph, is contained within the bony labyrinth of the cochlea and vestibular system while surrounding the membranous labyrinth, which contains endolymph. Perilymph helps transmit sound vibrations and maintains balance within the inner ear.
The fluid contained within the membranous labyrinth is called endolymph. It plays a crucial role in detecting and transmitting signals related to balance and hearing within the inner ear.
When the stapes taps on the oval window of the cochlea, it creates waves of pressure within the perilymph. The pressure waves within the perilymph are transferred to the basilar membrane of the organ of corti. The vibrations of the basilar membrane cause the attached hair cells to vibrate against the tectoral membrane. These vibrations are detected by the axons extending from the spiral ganglion in to the spiral lamina, and the impulses are sent to the brain via the cochlear nerve.
The pathway consists of the tympanic membrane, ossicles (malleus, incus, stapes), oval window, cochlea, and cochlear fluids (perilymph and endolymph). Sound waves cause the tympanic membrane and ossicles to vibrate, transmitting the vibrations to the oval window and cochlear fluids, which in turn stimulate the hair cells of the spiral organ of Corti.
Perilymph and endolymph are fluids found in the inner ear. Perilymph helps transmit sound vibrations to the cochlea, while endolymph plays a role in maintaining the balance and spatial orientation of the body by stimulating hair cells in the vestibular system.

Perilymph is a fluid present in the scala vestibuli and scala tympani which are the perilymph compartments of the inner ear. It has the same ionic concentration as the extracellular fluid present in the entire body
Perilymph is an extracellular fluid located within the cochlea (part of the ear) in 2 of its 3 compartments; the scala tympani and scala vestibuli. The ionic composition of perilymph is comparable to that of plasma and cerebrospinal fluid. The major cation of perilymph is sodium.
Hair cells
The movement of the perilymph activates the hair cells in the cochlea, which are responsible for detecting sound vibrations and transmitting auditory signals to the brain via the auditory nerve.

Perilymph sloshes around in the cochlea, a spiral-shaped, fluid-filled tube in the inner ear. This fluid plays a crucial role in transmitting sound signals to the brain for processing.
