How exactly does movement of the oval and round windows produce
auditory sensations via the organ of Corti?
Clinical note: Degeneration of
hair cells in the organ of Corti are a common cause of hearing loss
in older individuals. Recent research has shown the ability of hair
cells to regenerate in certain experimental systems and this is now
an important area of research in sensory neuroscience. Click the
