Ears

¿Qué es el oído y qué hace?

El oído consta de tres partes diferentes, que funcionan conjuntamente para captar sonidos y transmitírselos al cerebro: el oído externo, el oído medio y el oído interno.

El oído externo

El oído externo está formado por el pabellón auditivo (también conocido como "pabellón auricular" o "pabellón de la oreja") y el conducto auditivo. Los pabellones auditivos son las partes visibles que tenemos a ambos lados de la cabeza y están compuestos por cartílago duro cubierto de piel. La principal función del pabellón auditivo consiste en captar sonidos y conducirlos hacia el conducto auditivo, que conecta con el oído medio. Las glándulas de la piel que recubren el interior del conducto auditivo fabrican cera o cerumen, que protege este conducto, eliminado la suciedad y ayudando a prevenir posibles infecciones.

El oído medio

El oído medio es una cavidad llena de aire que transforma las ondas sonoras en vibraciones y las transmite al oído interno. El oído medio está separado del externo por el tímpano (o membrana timpánica), una fina lámina de tejido que va de lado a lado del conducto auditivo y que está fuertemente tensada sobre él. Los sonidos golpean el tímpano, haciendo que se mueva.

How did the frequency of stimulation affect the amount of force generated by the isolated skeletal muscle when the frequency of
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

When the frequency of stimulation of a muscle increases -without it having the opportunity to relax- a process called summation (addition) occurs, promoting an increase in the generation of force in the isolated skeletal muscle.

Explanation:

Summation is a phenomenon that occurs as a consequence of the arrival of successive stimuli that produce the contraction of the skeletal muscle before it achieves its partial or total relaxation, between subsequent stimuli.

<em>When the summation occurs in the muscle, the force generated on it increases its magnitude proportionally to the number of stimuli received, maintaining the muscle contraction in time</em>.

Tetany is the prolonged contraction of a muscle in an abnormal way, by the summation of stimuli received , as some bacterial toxins can produce. The summation can be temporary -when multiple stimuli reach the muscle in a determined time- or spatial, when the amount of stimuli activates a greater amount of motor units.
