Located on the basilar membrane are(is) the <u>organ of Corti</u><u> </u>containing hair cell sensory receptors for the sense of hearing.

The organ of Corti is also called basilar papilla which is a complex form of neuroepithelium composed of hair cells sensory receptors and supporting cells. In addition to these sensory and supporting cells, the organ of Corti also consists of a tectorial membrane. Endolymph which is a potassium-rich fluid surrounds the organ of Corti. The organs known as scala tympani and scala vestibule are present under and above the basilar papilla respectively.

The function of the organ of Corti is to generate electrical signals based on the sounds and transmit these signals to the brainstem through the passage of auditory nerves.

How can histograms help you describe a population? Use the word bank above to help you explain your answer.
krek1111 [17]

Answer: It shows the distribution of the population with respect to a characteristic, quantitative and continuous, such as the weight or height of a population. It is used to determine the degree of homogeneity of the values studied, or to see the degree of variability, and therefore, the dispersion of all the values taken by the parts.

Explanation:

A histogram is a graphical representation of a variable using bars. In such a bar, <u>its area is proportional to the frequency of the values represented</u>. Thus, it shows the distribution of the population, or of the sample, with respect to a characteristic, quantitative and continuous, such as the weight or height of a population. It is used to determine the degree of homogeneity of the values studied, or to see the degree of variability, and therefore, the dispersion of all the values taken by the parts.

In order to construct a histogram first we need to have a frequency table with all the information. On the abscissa axis (horizontal axis) the intervals are placed from smallest to largest.  On the ordinate axis (vertical axis), the absolute frequencies of each of the intervals are represented.  Then, the rectangular bars of equal width are drawn, and the height represents the absolute frequency. All bars touch the bars next to each other, unless an interval has zero frequency (the height of the bar will also be zero).

<u>Thus, histograms are used to describe populations since they represent a variable and in what proportion of the population it is found.</u>

How do you think scientists count the world’s human population?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Scientist count the world humans population with an organization called The United Nations Population Division (UNPD),

Explanation:

Which keeps track of the world population, projects that the world's human population will hit 7 billion on Halloween Day 2011. Admittedly, that is just an estimate: There's no way to know exactly how many people are alive at any given moment, and the true date that humanity's ranks will surpass 7 billion could come in the weeks or months before or after Oct. 31. Nonetheless, the UN's guess is the best there is.
