Answers
Answer : d
Explanation : The external ear recieves sound waves and directs them to the ear drum, then it vibrates in response to the sound waves and there vibrations are transmitted through the ear ossicles to the oval window ( fenestra ovalis ). These vibrations are passed to the fluid of the cochlea, where they generate waves in the lymphs. The wave in the lymphs induce a ripple in the basilar membrane. These movements of the basilar membrane bend the hair cells, pressing them against the tectorial membrane. As a result, nerve impulses are generated in the associated afferent neurons. These impulses are generated by the afferent fibres via auditory nerves to the auditory cortex of the brain, where the impulses are analysed and the sound is recognised.
d. Scala vestibuli - helicotrema - scala tympani → fenestra rotunda ( round window ) - tympanic cavity → Eustachian tube - pharynx
