Frequency coding in primary afferents- Place-mapping over 2-1/2 turn cochlea.
Frequency coding in primary afferents- Place-mapping over 2-1/2 turn cochlea.
- Tuning curves shown by high to lowest detectable threshold for a nerve fiber.
- Cochlear microphonics- single tone frequencies reveal electrical field generation across the basilar membrane.
- Summation potential - all fibers that are activated produce fields across the endolymph as recorded between the two perilymph spaces, scala vestibuli and scala tympani, electrodes.
