Question

Imagine a very tiny person is walking through the auditory tract, from the ear canal through to the auditory nerve. when that tiny person reaches the cochlea and walks along the basilar membrane, ________ frequency sounds will disturb their walk most at the base of the cochlea, and ________ frequency sounds will disturb their walk most at the tip of the cochlea.

Answer 1

Imagine a very tiny person is walking through the auditory tract, from the ear canal through to the auditory nerve. when that tiny person reaches the cochlea and walks along the basilar membrane, Loud frequency sounds will disturb their walk most at the base of the cochlea, and soft frequency sounds will disturb their walk most at the tip of the cochlea, the cochlea communicates with the middle ear by two holes closed by membranes: the oval window, which limits the base of the vestibular ramp and on which the abutment is attached and the round window that closes the base of the tympanic ramp and which serves as a decompression system.

Answer 2

Answer:

a. High frequency

b. Low frequency.

Imagine a very tiny person is walking through the auditory tract, from the ear canal through to the auditory nerve. when that tiny person reaches the cochlea and walks along the basilar membrane, High frequency sounds will disturb their walk most at the base of the cochlea, and Low frequency sounds will disturb their walk most at the tip of the cochlea.
