Mechanoreceptors in the ___ send signal, to the brain about the body's position relative to gravity. a. eye b. ear c. tongue d. nose
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/ear1) to learn more about how the structures of the ear convert sound waves into a neural signal by moving the hairs, or stereocilia, of the cochlear duct. Specific locations along the length of the duct encode specific frequencies, or pitches. The brain interprets the meaning of the sounds we hear as music, speech, noise, etc. Which ear structures are responsible for the amplification and transfer of sound from the external ear to the inner ear?

The pupils constrict when we focus on nearby objects so _______________. A.less distracting light can enter the eye. B.the rest of the environment is excluded from vision. C.the object can be better focused onto the retina. D.None E.All are correct.
Research suggests that newborns are able to discriminate their own language from a foreign language, and their mother's voice from a stranger's voice. In contrast, their visual abilities are much less developed at birth, and develop rapidly over the first few months of life. One explanation for this is: A) Fetuses get equivalent auditory and visual experience before birth, but before they are born they are only able to learn from auditory experience B) Fetuses do not experience sensory information before birth (i.e., they cannot hear, see, smell, etc.) but language develops faster than vision because it is more evolutionarily important C) Fetuses get equivalent auditory and visual experience before birth, but vision requires additional postnatal triggers to be fully activated D) Fetuses can hear many types of sounds prenatally but have limited visual experience until after birth.
