Sound waves cause vibrations in the air, which in turn cause vibrations in the eardrum. These vibrations are then transmitted through the middle ear bones to the cochlea in the inner ear. Within the cochlea, specialized hair cells convert these vibrations into electrical signals that travel along the auditory nerve to the brain for processing.
What else can I help you with?
What can be sharp to the ears but soft to the touch?
Sound. Sound can be sharp and piercing to the ears, but it cannot be physically touched or felt.
Where do motor nerves conduct impulses from?
Motor nerves conduct impulses from the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to muscles and glands in order to stimulate movement or secretion.
How does the sound from a firework reach your ears?
The sound from a firework reaches your ears through the process of sound wave propagation. When a firework explodes, it creates a rapid release of energy that generates sound waves in the air. These sound waves travel as vibrations through the air, moving outward from the explosion. When these waves reach your ears, they cause the eardrum to vibrate, allowing you to perceive the sound.
How do ears process the stimuli?
Ears process stimuli by capturing sound waves through the outer ear, which then travel through the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are transmitted through the middle ear bones to the cochlea in the inner ear, where they stimulate hair cells to convert the vibrations into electrical signals that are sent to the brain for interpretation.
Explain how sound waves stimulate the hair cells of the spiral organ of corti to cause hearing?
When the sound waves stimulate the hair cells of the spiral organ of corti to cause hearing, the impulses are usually sent to the brain.
What nerves that carries sound massage to the brain?
the cochlear nerve (found in the ears).
Which nerves go through openings in the skull and stimulate the head and neck?
cranial nerves.
What are the ears on rampant rabbits used for?
To stimulate the clitorus!
What kinds of messages do your nerves ending carry do your?
It really depends on where the nerve fiber is going to. They could stimulate sight, sound, pressure, pain, etc.
Why does yawning cause neck cramps?
hyperexcitability of the nerves that stimulate the muscles
Which of these is stimulated by parasympathetic nerves?
Parasympathetic nerves stimulate resting and digesting. Therefore, stomach activity is stimulated by parasympathetic nerves.
Why are there positive and negative wires when stimulating nerves?
The most likely explanation is that the equipment used to stimulate the nerves uses a DC voltage to do so.
What do you call the nerve in your ears?
the nerve of the ear sends messages to the brain to allow you to hear.
What is otic cannulas manuever?
rotate your head round and round to stimulate the nerves and muscles
What fluid filled passes sound vibrations to tiny hairs attached to nerves?
The cochlea is a fluid-filled structure in the inner ear that vibrates in response to sound waves. These vibrations stimulate hair cells within the cochlea, which then send signals to the auditory nerve, allowing the brain to process sound.
Are there nerves in your nose that affect your balance or weight?
No. Your EARS affect your balance.
Which energy can be sensed by the ears in science?
Sound energy can be sensed by the ears in science. Sound energy travels in the form of waves and causes the eardrums to vibrate, which our brains interpret as sound.
