How do we localize where sound is coming from and which structures are responsible?
Select all that apply:
a. The auditory nerve communicates with the vestibular nuclei to process information about the body's location
b. Medial geniculate nucleus processes visual stimuli to locate visual cues associated with the sound
c. The hair cells simultaneously process information about frequency as well as the location the sound originated in
d. Lateral superior olives respond to differences in the amplitude of sound waves from each ear
e. Medial superior olives respond to differences in the time it takes sound to arrive in each ear
