Which of the following statements concerning the inner ear is TRUE?
Question 3 options:
a)
The bony labyrinth within the tempoal bone contains spaces for the semicircular canals and the cochlea.
b)
The fibers of the cochlear nerve are attached to hair cells in the semicircular canals to carry information about movements of the head.
c)
The frequency of sound waves as defined by their wavelengths are perceived as pitch and are measured in decibels (dB).
d)
The saccule and utricle are critical sensory receptors for interpreting language, distinct from other sounds.
Draw a simple circuit showing the path of odor signals from nasal epithelium to the olfactory bulb, then to the olfactory cortex, and on to the sensory motor cortex.
The olfactory bulb is organized into (...), which receive axons from olfactory receptor cells of the same type, and the bundle of axons connecting the olfactory bulb to olfactory cortex is called the olfactory(...)
