Key Terms
1. the sense of hearing
2. pitch - a tone's highness or lowness; depends on the # of complete wave lengths that pass a
point in a given time
3. chamber between eardrum and cochlea containing 3 tiny bones that concentrate the vibrations
of the eardrum on the cochlea's oval window
4. innermost part of the ear, contains cochlea, semicircular canals and vestibular sacs
5. a coiled, bony, fluid-filled tube in the inner ear through which sound waves trigger nerve
impulses
6. links place where cochlea's membrane is stimulated to pitch we hear
7. the rate of the nerve impulse traveling up the auditory nerve matches the frequency of a tone,
thus enabling us to sense its pitch
8. hearing loss caused by damage to mechanical system that conducts sound waves to the
cochlea
9. hearing loss casued by damage to the cochlea's receptor cells or to the auditory nerves
