What do the nerves in the ear do?
I don't knoww.. :L
Which nerve present in which ear carries the sound signal to the brain?
ff
What is a cochlea and what is its role?
The cochlea is the inner ear. It transforms sound into a message the nerves can carry to the brain.
How does the cochlea detect sound signals?
the cells of the hairs don't detect the sound waves at all. The full hair is vibrated by the sound waves and this vibration is picked up by nerves and the info is sent to the brain.
How do our brain cells get activated when we listen How do our brain cells work when we talk?
The sound causes vibration of special structures in our ear. These structures, called stereocilia, are basically sort of "cell hair". When these hair move, a signal in the cells is produced. This signal is transmitted by nerves to brain. The existence of this signal in brain = "activation of brain cells". How do our brain cells work when we talk? They just produce signals leading to nerves which control our vocal centers. The question is not specific enough.

What nerves that carries sound massage to the brain?
the cochlear nerve (found in the ears).
Which nerves carry sound impulses from the inner ear of the brain?
The auditory nerve carries auditory impulses to the brain.
What is the name of the nerve that carries messages from the ear to the brain?
The cochlea structure consists of three adjacent tubes separated from each other by sensitive membranes.These tubes are coiled in the shape of a snail shell and filled with fluid. Its' job is to take the physical vibrations caused by the sound wave and translate them into electrical information the brain can recognize as distinct sound.
What is the sequence of hearing?
First the outer ear catches the sound next sound travels to the eardrum then from the ear drum to the ossucles then it moves to the cochlea at last liquid carries sound vibrations to a special nerve this nerve carries messages to the brain
What kinds of messages do your nerves ending carry do your?
It really depends on where the nerve fiber is going to. They could stimulate sight, sound, pressure, pain, etc.
What transmits sound from the inner ear to the brain?
Nerves in the ear respond to the mechanical stress of soundwaves and transmit the stress/sound accoundingly (super simplified answer)

Why do you hear what you hear?
Sound is a natural phenomenon. Hearing is a physiological detection of sound. For humans, the ear channels sound in. It stimulates nerves in the inner ear. Different nerves are stimulated by different frequencies. These nerves transmit their signals to the brain. The brain interprets the nerve signals, comparing them to signals it has heard before or those that are instinctively recognized. Why? Because the brain and the ear are made to work this way.
Which part of your ear sends the messages to your brain that you've heard a sound?
The cochlea
When is sound perceived?
When the soundwaves hit the ear drum. The pressure wave is then passed to the Cochlear, which contain tiny hairs attached to nerve endings. Each hair resonates at different frequencies. The nerves send messages to the brain, which perceives the electrical signals produced as sound.
What makes a sound and how do you hear it?
sound waves, your eardrum picks up these vibrations and transforms them into messages which your brain recieves
