The right option is; B. They carry neural signals about a sound wave’s frequency to the brain.

The cochlea is the sense organ that converts sound into neural signals that is sent to the brain. The cochlea contains hair cells that are responsible for hearing. The lower part of the hair cells are joined to the basilar membrane. Within the cochlea, sound waves make the basilar membrane to vibrate up and down and to generate nerve impulses. Below the hair cells are the auditory nerve fibers which pass the signals about a sound wave’s frequency to the brain.

The oxidation of glucose to two molecules each of pyruvate, ATP, and NADH is called ________ and occurs in the ______.

rodikova [14]

Answer:

1. Glycolysis

2. Cytoplasm

Explanation:

This question is describing the process of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration, which is the process by which organisms obtain their energy (ATP), occurs in stages. The first stage undergone by all living cells is called GLYCOLYSIS.

IN GLYCOLYSIS, glucose molecule (from digested food) is broken down via oxidation in the CYTOPLASM of the cell, into two molecules each of pyruvate, ATP, and NADH. The pyruvate proceeds to the other stages of cellular respiration.
