Special Senses Physiology: Vision, Hearing, and Balance

question 1 of 2 course: Medicine(Degree)

Q: In the cochlea:

Cochlear nerve fibers discharge at the frequency as the sound over the entire range of audible frequencies
Olivocochlear efferents cause contraction of the basilar membrane
Oscillations of the basilar membrane in response to high-frequency sound are greater near the apex of the cochlea than at the base
The intensity of sound is encoded by hair cells near the base of the cochlea
The receptor potentials of the hair cells can be recorded as the cochlear microphonic potential
