When waves push the basilar membrane up and down, the
stereocilia move back and forth, opening up
ion
channels, allowing this ion to move into the hair cells and
depolarizing the membrane.
O CF
O K*
Na+
O H*
O Ca*
Ca+
What happens to voltage-gated Ca++ channels on hair cells when the hair cells move
toward the shorter stereocilia?
They open allowing Ca++ to exit
They open allowing Ca++ entry
They remain closed
They go from open to closed
Tactile receptors include all the following receptors, except :-a- free nerve endingsb- hair follicle receptorsc- hair cell receptorsd- Ruffini nerve endings
