, travelling wave basal end of the cochlea/basilar membrane moves
first and gradually starts to move posterior
sections
Active process of the cochlea Cellular level: OHC motility (active shape changes)
- prestin (motor protein in the OHCs)
Tissue level:
- nonlinearity of the basilar membrane movement
Functional evidence:
- OAEs
- dependence of OAEs on sufficient oxygen supply
Otoacoustic Emissions (OAEs) low intensity sounds generated within the cochlea
that can be detected in the external ear canal
using a microphone
- discovered by david kemp
source of OAEs electromotility of the OHCs
40-50 dB Prestin knockout leads to ___________ hearing loss
OAE transmission reverse sound transmission
- the basilar membrane (hydromechanical
radiation) — the ossicles —tympanic membrane—ear
canal
Types of OAE response Spontaneous OAEs
Evoked OAEs: Transient Evoked OAEs, Distortion
