Complete the pathway with the appropriate structure. (2 points each) Sound waves enter the ear and cause the _______A___________ (use anatomical name) to vibrate. This vibration is then transmitted through the middle ear and the three auditory ossicles. The ossicles are named (in order of vibration – from lateral to medial) _______B___________, ________C_________, and stapes; with the stapes located within the ________D____________ window. This causes waves to form within the fluid of the inner ear. This fluid is called the perilymph and located within the scala vestibuli of the _______E___________, causing displacement of the basilar membrane. This displacement is detected by hair cells which are a form of _________F___________(type of receptor), which generates the action potential. The action potential then travels along the Vestibulocochlear nerve back to the thalamus and finally reaching the temporal lobe of the cerebrum.
