31
New cards

Oval Window

PARTS OF THE MIDDLE EAR:

  • separates middle and inner ear

32
New cards

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

  • tunnels filled with fluid

  • 3 regions: cochlea, vestibule, semicircular canals

35
New cards

Membranous Labyrinth

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

  • inside bony labyrinth

  • filled with endolymph

36
New cards

Endolymph

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

39
New cards

cochlea duct

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

  • filled with endolymph

40
New cards

Cochlea

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

  • snail-shell shaped structure where hearing takes place

  • parts: scala vestibuli, scala tympani, cochela duct

41
New cards

Spinal organ

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

  • found in cochlear duct and contains hair cells

42
New cards

Tectorial membrane

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

  • found in cochlea and vibrates against hair cells

43
New cards

Hair Cells

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

  • attached to sensory neurons that when bent produce an action potential

44
New cards

Vestibular Membrane

PARTS OF THE INNER EAR:

  • wall of membranous labyrinth that lines scala vestibuli
