When sound waves enter your ear they first cause?
A sound wave is a type of pressure wave that travels through the air. As the wave travels into the ear canal (fancy name=external auditory meatus), it first will hit the ear drum (tympanic membrane). Since the sound wave is actually a pressure wave, it will push against the ear drum which will then rebound. This results in a vibration of the ear drum. The ear drum is connected to three little bones (malleus, incus and stapes) - the smallest bones in your body. These bones (together called the ossicular chain) rock back and forth when the ear drum vibrates thereby transmitting the pressure wave down the ossicular chain to the cochlea. The cochlea is a fluid filled sac and the ossicular chain is connected to it. As the ossicular chain vibrates, it pushes against the fluid in the cochlea. This causes the fluid to move around in a particular way so that special hairs within the cochlea are moved. These hair cells are in turn attached to a nerve cell. As the hair cells are moved, they activate the nerve cells which send information down a chain of neurones going up your brain stem, to your thalamus (medial geniculate nucleus) and then to your brain's auditory cortex which is when you perceive sound.
What product is made up by the electron transport chain?
ATP and, CRASHED (x3) into a ditch
Does cellulose have branched chains?
No, cellulose does not have branched chains. It is a linear polymer made up of glucose units that are linked together in a straight chain structure. Branched chains are seen in other polysaccharides like glycogen and amylopectin.
Do amino acid molecules make up proteins?
Yes, amino acid molecules are the building blocks of proteins. Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids that are linked together by peptide bonds. The sequence of amino acids in a protein determines its structure and function.
When plants store sugar they store it as a molecule made up of long chain of sugars called?
they are cellulose molecule.starches
What part of the middle ear strikes the oval window?
The ossicular chain.
What is the purpose if the ossicular chain?
The ossicular chain consists of three tiny bones in the middle ear: the malleus, incus, and stapes. Its primary purpose is to transmit sound vibrations from the eardrum to the inner ear. By amplifying these vibrations, the ossicular chain helps ensure that sound waves are effectively converted into signals that can be processed by the auditory system, enabling hearing.
A what is made up of a chain of amino acids?
PROTEIN is made up of chain of amino acids.
What is made up of a chain of amino acids.?
PROTEIN is made up of chain of amino acids.
What is myringoplasty?
another operative procedure used in the reconstruction of a perforation of the tympanic membrane. It is performed when the middle ear space, its mucosa, and the ossicular chain are free of active infection.
What structure is covered by the stapes?
The stapes covers the oval window in the middle ear. It is part of the ossicular chain, which helps transmit sound vibrations from the eardrum to the inner ear.
What is ossicular reconstruction?
It is the reconstruction of tiny bones of the middle ear
Which state is made up of a chain of island?
