Across
- 3. fluctuation of a wave from its mean value; loudness of sound
- 4. the light sensitive inner surface of the eye conditioning the receptor rods and cones plus layers of the neurons that begin the process of visual info
- 8. hearing loss caused by damage to the cochleas receptors cells or to the auditory nerves also called nerve deafness
- 11. the coiled, bony, fluid filled tube in the inner ear; sound waves traveling through its fluid triggered nerve impulses
- 12. retinal receptors that detect black white and grey; necessary for peripheral and twilight vision; used when cones don't respond
Down
- 1. hearing loss caused by damage to the mechanical system that conducts sound waves to the cochlea
- 2. short tube that end at the eardrum and is inside the inner ear
- 5. membrane in cochlea containing tiny hairs that act as sound receptors
- 6. depth cues such as retinal disparity that depends on the use of two eyes
- 7. depth cues such as interposition and linear position available to either eye alone
- 9. carries electrochemical signals from the cochlea to the brain
- 10. perceptual ability to organize stimuli into coherent groups; proximity continuity, closure
