What is sensory receptor for hearing?
A Sensory Receptor is a cell within the peripheral nervous system that gathers information from the environment and from inside your body. Answer from: Science Textbook! I Hope I Helped You!
What part of the ear contains the sensory receptors for hearing and balance?
In the mammalian ear the sensory receptors (hair cells) for hearing are in the cochlea and for ballance are in the semicircular canals. Both the cochlea and semicircular canals are part of the inner ear.inner
How do sounds reach the inner ear?
The three bones of the middle ear, commonly referred to as the hammer, anvil, and stirrup (technical: Malleus, Incus, and Stapes) transmit the sound through a part of the ear known as the oval window. The membrane around the oval window constitutes the boundary between the middle and inner ear. The sound (which is literally a wave, or vibration) then travels into the cochlea, which is the snail shell-like region of the inner ear. Due to the varying diameter of this structure (it is essentially a rolled up cone), the sound travels until it locates its fundamental frequency. The fundamental frequency is the point at which the original sound waves and the sound waves bouncing from the cochlea's surface are at the precise distance apart that complete constructive interference occurs. basically, the two waves line up one cycle apart, making the sound louder. (Destructive Interference is when the two cancel or nearly cancel each other out.) The best way to explain this phenomenon is at a concert or baseball game: If you are at one point, you can hardly hear the speaker or the sounds overlap, while in another very nearby location the sounds overlap and get louder. Try it next time you're at an event with big speakers. Back to the ear. The point at which this interference occurs moves the hairs inside the cochlea. Tiny mechanoreceptors (receptors that feel motion) receive this signal, find the general point all around the circumference of the cochlea that the sound is causing the hairs to move, and then transmits the signal down the auditory nerve to the brain. Know one is exactly sure of how this part works, as nerve signals are still largely not understood. More research can be completed on this part of the process, however.
How does sound enter your ears?
it goes through a very longg toobe and it is swirly and golden like a trumpet and the it goes through and then out the other ear cuz like people say what u say u hear isn't what u really hear.... this answer was made by.... E.B... a key to that is im not very smart............. lol got ya hope this wasnt for an assignment hahahahaaaaahhhhhh
What are the sensory receptors for hearing?
First, our ears collect sound waves and then transmitted to the middle ear. Ear drum vibrates by the sound waves and conducted and amplified the three ear bones. Then, the pressure waves will transmitted to the oval window and goes into the cochlea. Inside the cochlea, there are upper, cantral and lower canal. The upper and lower canals contains fluid perilymph while the cantral canal contains fluid endolymph. The fluids can then vibrated and stimulate the sensory hair cells to produce nerve impulses to the brain. Hope in will help :)
Where in your body can you find the cochlea?
YOUR EARS : Sound comes into the inner ear as vibrations and enters the cochlea
How do your ears pick up sound?
Your ears pick up sound which travels in invisible waves through the air. Sound occurs when a moving or vibrating object causes the air around it to move. Sound waves travel down the ear canal and hit the eardrum in the middle ear. This causes the eardrum to vibrate. Three tiny bones in your middle ear link the vibrating eardrum to the cochlea in the inner ear. The cochlea is filled with liquid that carries the vibrations to thousands of tiny hair cells sitting on a membrane that stretches the length of the cochlea. The hair cells on the membrane fire off tiny electrical signals. These electrical signals travel up the cochlea nerves of the auditory pathway to the brain. All this happens in a fraction of a second.
How does sound travel through ears?
Sound is a wave that vibrates the eardrum (tympanic membrane) this vibration moves tiny bones (malleus, incus,stapes) that magnify and transmit the vibration to the oval window of the choclea. Inside the chochlea are tiny hair cells that when bent by the vibrations send an impulse to the brain.

What is the part of the human body used for hearing?
It is the tympanic membrane, known commonly as the eardrum.Tympanic membrane
Do your ears keep you balanced?
yes they do Yes they send signals, using the semi-circular canals located near your cochlea, to the brain saying that they are sideways.
Where can ears on a cricket be found?
Crickets (and other insects) do not have ears. They have a membrane on the exoskeleton on each side of the head equivalent to an eardrum.
What is the function of the tympanic?
It is the ear drum.Hear: Heardrum An amphibians tympanic membrane serves as their "ears," and it can be used to detect sound vibrations.An amphibians tympanic membrane serves as their "ears," and it can be used to detect sound vibrations.

Receptors for hearing are located in the?
the grasshoppers ears are located next to their eyes
Why a sound with a a larger amplitude is more llikely to damage your hearing than one with a small amplitude?
because of the vibrations in the cochlea. the stronger the vibrations the more likely it is to damage your ears
