The perilymph fluid wave causes a frequency-specific movement of the basilar membrane. This results in excitation of the corresponding hair cells and the generation of a cochlear nerve impulse.

These modes affect how sound waves travel along the basilar membrane, with hair cells playing a key role in amplification. #hearingscience #cochlea #medindia’ Benjamin Machta, an assistant ...

Once sound waves enter the cochlea, they become surface waves that travel along the cochlea's hair-lined basilar membrane. "Each pure tone rings at one point along this spiral organ," said Asheesh ...

The process of determining what a sound is begins at a flat sheet of tissue (in the cochlea of the inner ear) called the basilar membrane. The basilar membrane detects the component frequencies ...

Migraine with brainstem aura or MBA (formerly known as basilar migraines) are headaches that start in the lower part of the brain, called the brainstem. They cause symptoms such as dizziness ...

The cochlea is a complex organ comprising diverse cell types with highly specialized morphology and function. Until now, the molecular underpinnings of its specializations have mostly been studied ...
