Q.
The sensory receptors that respond to sound, develop receptor potentials when their
Neural Control and Coordination
Solution:
The organ of Corti is a structure located on the basilar membrane which contains hair cells that act as auditory receptors. Movements of the basilar membrane bend the hair cells, pressing them against the tectorial membrane. As a result, nerve impulses are generated in the associated afferent neurons. These impulses are transmitted by the afferent fibres via auditory nerves to the auditory cortex of the brain, where the impulses are analysed and the sound is recognised
