kuulohermoja
Kuulohermoja, also known as the cochlea, is a spiral-shaped structure located within the inner ear. It plays a crucial role in the sense of hearing by converting sound vibrations into electrical signals that the brain can interpret. The cochlea is composed of three main sections: the scala vestibuli, scala media, and scala tympani. The scala media contains the organ of Corti, which houses the hair cells responsible for converting sound vibrations into neural impulses.
The cochlea is innervated by the auditory nerve, which transmits these impulses to the brain's auditory cortex.
The structure and function of the cochlea are essential for maintaining normal hearing. Understanding the anatomy
