First, our ears collect sound waves and then transmitted to the middle ear.

Ear drum vibrates by the sound waves and conducted and amplified the three ear bones. Then, the pressure waves will transmitted to the oval window and goes into the cochlea. Inside the cochlea, there are upper, cantral and lower canal.

The upper and lower canals contains fluid perilymph while the cantral canal contains fluid endolymph. The fluids can then vibrated and stimulate the sensory hair cells to produce nerve impulses to the brain.

Hope in will help :)

The cochlea contains hearing receptor cells called hair cells. These cells convert sound vibrations into electrical signals that are sent to the brain via the auditory nerve for processing.


Which type of sensory receptor is used to detect a stimulus by the special sense of hearing?

Mechanoreceptors are the type of sensory receptor used to detect a stimulus in the special sense of hearing. These receptors respond to mechanical stimuli such as vibrations in the environment that are produced by sound waves.


Describe a hearing receptor?

The receptor organ for hearing is the?

Organ of Corti is the hearing organ and it rests on basilar membrane; consists of supporting cells and hair cells. Axons of the neurons that begin around the organ of Corti, extend in the cochlear nerve to the brain to produce the sensation of hearing.


What kind of a receptor is a hearing receptor and where is it located?

they are located in the ears and are used when vibrations hit your ear drum and it comes to you as sound and the time it takes to do this can be instant to you but it does require something to hear people with hearing loss or deafness don't have the ability to hear as good as they are born without or with bad ear drums that don't function like people who can hear.

Where are the receptor sights located for kinesthetic sense?

It depends on what the receptor cells are for. If they are for vision, they are located in the retina of the eye. If they are for hearing, they are located in the organ of Corti, and so on and so forth.

What are important tissue receptor tumor markers?

Important tissue receptor tumor markers include estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in breast cancer; epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) in lung cancer; and the androgen receptor (AR) in prostate cancer. These markers help guide treatment decisions and predict response to targeted therapies.
