The cochlea is a small but fundamental part of the ear and is responsible for the transduction of sound.
Explanation:
- The ear is a very complex structure and is composed of the 'outer ear, 'middle ear' and the inner ear.
- The cochlea is a unique hollow spiral bone that is fundamental for hearing sounds and actively participates in the transduction of the auditory waves.
- It effectively transforms the liquids in the cochlea and transfers it to neural signals. Permanent loss of hearing occurs when the cochlea is damaged.
