Outer hair cells change their axial dimensions in response to electrical stimulation.
What is basilar membrane motion?
Hair cell stereocilia move as a result of the basilar membrane's movement. The tectorial membrane and the hair cells, which are connected to the basilar membrane, move along with it when it moves, and the stereocilia bend in response to the relative motion of the tectorial membrane.
The hair cells that are linked to the auditory nerve fibers are stimulated by the basilar membrane's movement. While the outside hair cells actively affect the basilar membrane's vibrations, the inner hair cells convert hydromechanical vibration into action potentials.
With each sound cycle, the intracellular voltage of the outer hair cells varies, causing them to lengthen and contract. This increases the organ of Corti's vibration, enabling exceptionally high hearing sensitivity and frequency selectivity.

Answer:
Compare and contrast inexhaustible and renewable resources. Inexhaustible resources are sources of energy that will never run out. In contrast, renewable resources could potentially run out. They are finite energy resources that can be replaced in a relatively short period of time.
Explanation:
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below are choices that I manage to check from other sources:
A. A weed is uprooted from the soil.
B. Oxygen is removed from the water in a fish’s bowl.
C. A cactus is moved from a sunny windowsill to a dark room.
D. The water bowl is removed from a hamster’s cage.
The answer is C.
Answer:
Aerobic respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen.
C6H12O6(glucose) –> 2CH3CH2OH(ethanol) +2CO( carbon dioxide) + energy
Anaerobic respiration get energy by breaking down glucose in the complete absence of oxygen.
C6H12O6(glucose) –> 2CH3CH(OH)COOH (Lactic acid) + energy.
It is the cell’s powerhouse and processes energy for the cell.
I was told to remember it as the main brain or the head honcho.Hope this helps.
