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.

Answer:
Carbon dioxide and oxygen are recycled through photosynthesis and cellular
respiration forever unless something interrupts.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are two distinct and opposite metabolical processes undergone by living cells. They are opposite processes because one utilizes the products of the other as reactants.
Photosynthesis is a unique process to autotrophic organisms like plants. It is the process whereby plants synthesize their food in form of organic molecules (glucose) by combining Carbondioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) in the presence of sunlight.
The overall equation of photosynthesis is as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O ------> C6H12O6+ 6O2
On the other hand, cellular respiration is the process whereby living cells obtain energy (ATP) by breaking down food molecules (glucose) using oxygen to produce carbondioxide (CO2) and water as products. The overall equation is:
C6H12O6 + 602 -----> 6CO2 + 6H2O
Based on the lab experiments, it can be concluded that Carbon dioxide and oxygen are recycled through photosynthesis and cellular
respiration because photosynthesis recycles/reuses the products of cellular respiration, which are C02 and H2O while cellular respiration recycles/reuses the products of photosynthesis, which are C6H12O6 and O2. This process occurs naturally in the environment and will continue to do so unless something interupts.
Option B is incorrect because light energy from the sun powers photosynthesis while option C is incorrect because photosynthesis transforms light energy to chemical energy while cellular respiration transforms chemical energy to thermal energy.
Answer:
Humans cannot occupy the lowest levels.
Explanation:
each of two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei, and hence differ in relative atomic mass but not in chemical properties; in particular, a radioactive form of an element.
