Detailed explanation-1: -The sound waves enter the inner ear and then into the cochlea, a snail-shaped organ. The cochlea is filled with a fluid that moves in response to the vibrations from the oval window. As the fluid moves, 25, 000 nerve endings are set into motion.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your cochlea is the hearing organ. This snail-shaped structure contains two fluid-filled chambers lined with tiny hairs. When sound enters, the fluid inside of your cochlea causes the tiny hairs to vibrate, sending electrical impulses to your brain.
Detailed explanation-3: -The inner ear is made up of: the snail shaped organ for hearing (cochlea), the semicircular canals that help with balance, and. the nerves that go to the brain.
Detailed explanation-4: -The cochlea is a fluid-filled, snail-shaped structure that contains the sensory receptor cells (hair cells) of the auditory system (Figure).
Detailed explanation-5: -The inner ear includes a tiny coiled tube, called the cochlea, which is the organ of hearing. It also has some other structures that help us maintain our balance. The cochlea is filled with fluid and thousands of tiny hair cells (sensory cells).
