Answer:

The cochlea contains of  tiny stereocilia, or tiny hair cells.

Explanation:

By definition, cochlea is a snail-shaped portion of the inner ear, that belongs to the auditory system. Cochlea receives the vibrating sounds and it causes <em>stereocilia</em> (bundle of tiny hairs, visible in that shape only under the microscope) to move. Then, those vibrations are converted into nerve impulses, and further sent to brain so the received nerves can be processed.

That hearing is an extraordinary process, says the fact that we have over 15000 tiny hair cells! When sounds are too loud for too long, these bundles of <em>stereocilia</em> can be damaged. The damaged hair cells can't respond to sound, which causes noise-induced hearing loss. Since hair cells can’t be repaired or even replaced in humans, hearing loss is often permanent.

Three hours after going to sleep, Shoshanna's heart rate increases, her breathing becomes more rapid, and her eyes move rapidly
s2008m [1.1K]

The correct answer is letter A

Dreams are nothing more than mental experiences during our sleep. These are thoughts, images and emotions when we are sleeping. It is possible to visualize areas of the brain being activated while we dream.

Not everyone remembers what they dream. Since many people do not normally remember their dreams and live normally, it has been suggested that this may not be necessary for the normal functioning of our brain.

We all dream and, throughout a night of 7/8 hours of sleep, we have about 5 dream periods, each of which may contain several “stories”. About 20 to 25% of the night is spent dreaming. What happens is that not all people remember their dreams when they wake up.
