A membrane in the cochlea that, when set into motion, stimulates hair cells that produce the neural effects of auditory stimulation.

A flat band of tissue that bears the auditory hair cells in the cochlea of the vertebrate ear; the membrane vibrates in response to pressure waves. basilar

n. structurally, refers to a layer in the inner ear which separates the two fluid-filled tubes of the cochlea. Mechanically, its movement happens in a pattern called a Bekesy traveling wave. Essential [..]

Is a fibrous membrane found in the cochlea which supports the oecorti organ. The mechanical properties of the basi

This is a long membrane that is part of the auditory system. The membrane runs the length of the cochlea (inside the ear) and contains those tiny hairs that act as sound receptors.

A membrane in the cochlea that contains the principal structures involved in auditory transduction. See Figures 9.2, 9.3.

Pronunciation GB: ˈbæzɪlə, GA: ˈbæzɪlər A membrane which runs along the centre of the cochlea in the inner ear and forms the base of the organ of Corti. The basilar membrane vibrates in response to th [..]

a membrane in the cochlea of the ear that vibrates in response to sound. As sound vibrations progress down the ear, a fluid wave that is created by the movement of the third ossicle, the stapes, moves the basilar membrane. The basilar membrane is the part of the cochlea that separates sounds according to their frequency.

The basilar membrane vibrates in unison with the movements of the perilymph. It also supports the organ of corti

A Basement Membrane in the Cochlea that supports the Hair Cells of the Organ of Corti, consisting Keratin-like fibrils. It stretches from the Spiral Lamina to the basilar crest. The Movement of fluid [..]

A basement membrane in the cochlea that supports the HAIR CELLS of the ORGAN OF CORTI, consisting keratin-like fibrils. It stretches from the SPIRAL LAMINA to the basilar crest. The movement of fluid [..]

The membrane beneath hair cells in the cochlea of the inner ear that vibrates in response to sound.

The membrane that forms the lower boundary of the cochlear canal, and on which rests the organ of Corti, of which the hair cells of the cochlea are part.
