Amplitude - ANS-Difference between the most and minimum sound pressures
-top of the wave determines how loud; larger the wave the louder the sound
-measured in Hertz (Hz)
Auditory Cortex - ANS--Primary auditory cortex
-Tonotopic agency
-Other regions: auditory core location, rostrol center, rostral temporal core, belt, parabelt
areas
Basilar Membrane - ANS-Composed of fiber, organ of corti lies on it
-positioned in cochlea
Brain Anatomy and the Pathway of Hearing - ANS-Auditory nerve fibers make the 8 cranial
nerves
-cochlear nucleus
-trapezoid frame
-advanced olive
Characteristic Frequency - ANS-The frequency to which any particular vicinity at the basilar
membrane responds first-rate
-frequency which you are clearly correct at processing; pitch which you without a doubt
respond to
-every unmarried hair mobile has a feature frequency
Cochlea - ANS-Snail fashioned structure of the internal that houses the hair cells
Contains:
-tympanic canal
-middle canal
-vestibular canal
-reissner's membrane
-basilar membrane
-tectorial membrane
Cochlear Implant - ANS-Implanted tool that the use of a twine to stimulate the cochlea
Cochlear Nucleus - ANS-Serves a later inhibition function (sharpen a selected frequency by
means of inhibiting the reaction to nearby frequencies)
-brain anatomy and pathway of listening to
Conductive Hearing Loss - ANS-Sound does no longer nicely arrive to the cochlea
-blockage of the auditory canal, torn tympanic membrane, or harm to the ossicles
-Otosclerosis
Eustachian Tube - ANS-Connects the center ear with the pharynx (thorat)
-equalizes air pressure on both facet of the eardrum
-located in middle ear
External Auditory Canal - ANS-Conducts sound to tympanic membrane (ear drum) and
amplifies unique sound frequencies
-located in outer ear
