Kuulmismembraan
Kuulmismembraan, also known as the basilar membrane, is a vibratory structure in the cochlea of the inner ear that separates two of the fluid-filled cavities: the cochlear duct and the scalatympani. It plays a crucial role in the process of hearing. The membrane is narrow and stiff at the base of the cochlea, near the oval window, and becomes wider and more flexible towards the apex.
When sound waves enter the ear, they cause vibrations that travel through the ossicles and into the
These vibrations of the basilar membrane move the organ of Corti, which rests upon it. The organ
