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.

Why was it important that the Constitution gave the federal government the power to "insure domestic tranquility"?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

C. The Confederation Congress had no power to put down rebellions.

Explanation:

The Confederation Congress was a government of the United States of America that ran from March 1, 1781 until the government under the Constitution became operational on March 4, 1789. This institution, which brought together delegates from the parliaments of the states, was the direct successor to the Second Continental Congress.

When it was created, the confederation congress was weak and inefficient on some points. This brought some problems to the government that was being established, but many of these problems were solved with the country's constitution. As an example of this, the Confederation Congress did not have the power to suppress rebellions, so the Constitution gave the federal government the power to "guarantee domestic tranquility"
