What contains receptor that convert sound vibrations to impulses sent to the brain?

The cochlea in the inner ear contains receptors called hair cells that convert sound vibrations into electrical impulses. These impulses are then sent to the brain via the auditory nerve, where they are interpreted as sound.


Where are the structures for connecting sound waves to nerve impulses located?

The structures for connecting sound waves to nerve impulses are located in the inner ear. Specifically, the hair cells in the cochlea are responsible for converting sound waves into nerve impulses that can be transmitted to the brain for processing.


Where are Sound Vibration Are Converted In To Nerve Impulses?

Sound vibrations are converted into nerve impulses in the inner ear. The vibrations are detected by hair cells in the cochlea, which then stimulate the auditory nerve to send signals to the brain for processing and interpretation of sound.


How do you hear the sound of another persons voice?

Sound waves produced by another person's vocal cords travel through the air and enter your ear canal. These sound waves then vibrate your eardrum, which sets off a chain reaction in your middle ear that eventually leads to nerve impulses being sent to your brain. Your brain processes these impulses, allowing you to interpret them as the sound of another person's voice.


What is the auditory receptors where sound waves finally become neural impulses?

The auditory receptors in the human ear are called hair cells, which are located in the cochlea. These hair cells convert sound waves into neural impulses that can be interpreted by the brain as sound.

Which nerves carry sound impulses from the inner ear of the brain?

The auditory nerve carries auditory impulses to the brain.


What is the name of the structure leading from the ear to the brain?

You have a nerve that carry the impulses from inner ear to brain. It is sensory nerve. It is the 8th nerve. It is called as vestibulocochlear nerve.


What information do nerve impulses require?

Nerve impulses do not carry information, they only carry impulses. It is the brain and spinal cord that interpret that impulse into information.

Where in the ear in sound changed into signals that are sent to the brain?

The inner ear is responsible for converting sound waves into neural impulses that are sent to the brain.


How sound travels from your vocal cords to your friends ear when you talk?

When you speak, your friend's ear gathers compressional waves, which are sound waves. Then, the ear amplifies the waves, converting them to nerve impulses that travel to the brain. And then, the brain decodes and interprets the nerve impulses.

What is the part of the body made up of bundles of neurons that carry impulses from all parts of the body to the brain and from the brain to all parts of the body?

The nervous system carries impulses to and from the brain by way of neurons. The bundles are called nerves. Sensory nerves bring impulses into the spinal cord and brain and motor neuron carry impulses away from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles and glands.


What part of the nervous system does sensory neuron carry impulses?

brain or spinal cord


Neurons carry impulses away from the brain and spinal cord?

Afferent


What tracts of the spinal cord carry impulses away from the brain?

synape


What carries message to the brain?

Messages are carried to the brain through neurons, which are specialized cells that transmit information in the form of electrical impulses. These impulses travel along neural pathways and ultimately reach the brain where they are processed and interpreted.
