Place the following events in order starting with the vibration of the oval window and ending with the depolarization of hair cells.
1) increased pressure in perilymph of scala vestibuli
2) pressure wave depresses basilar membrane
3) inner hair cells move closer to tectorial membrane
4) stereocilia bend
5) tip-link proteins open K+ channels
6) K+ ions enter hair cell causing depolarization

Respuesta :

The vibration of the oval window is the first event, followed by the depolarization of the hair cells, in that sequence.

  • Oval window vibrates
  • Pressure wave travels through the perilymph of the Scala vestibuli
  • Basilar membrane moves up and down
  • Inner hair cells are pushed against the tectorial membrane
  • Stereocilia bend and tip-link proteins open potassium channels
  • Potassium ions enter hair cell causing depolarization

In general, pressure and waves are produced in the perilymph of the Scala vestibuli of the cochlea by mechanical vibrations in the stapes at the basal plate of the oval window.

As a result, these waves are what cause the cochlea's tip to move around the helicotrema at the site of the scala tympani and deplete when they hit a window.
