Across
- 2. The entryway to the cochlea and vestibular system is via this space
- 7. The number of layers of tissue the tympanic membrane is made up of
- 8. Part of the stapes that articulates with the oval window
- 11. Part of the brain stem involved in both localization and intersensory interaction
- 12. Permits communication between the scala vestibule and the middle ear space
- 13. Separates the outer and inner hair cells
- 15. Part of auditory cortex responsible for primary reception of the auditory signal
- 18. Anterior to Heschl's gyrus
- 19. Bone of the middle ear directly communicating with the oval window
- 20. The membrane that separates the scala vestibuli and the scala media
Down
- 1. Resistance to the flow of energy
- 3. Primary site of localization of sound in space
- 4. Frequency of a neuron that is the frequency to which it responds best
- 5. Region of the auditory cortex that surrounds the core area for auditory reception
- 6. Provides communication between the scala tympani and the middle ear
- 9. Part of the outer ear important for the localization of sound in space
- 10. Posterior to Heschl's gyrus
- 14. Firing patterns that most resemble VIII nerve responses
- 16. Bone of the middle ear directly attached to the tympanic membrane
- 17. Serves the function of sound collection
