Where are the auditory receptor cells located?​

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The auditory receptor cells, also known as hair cells, are located on the basilar membrane in the cochlea of the inner ear. They are responsible for transducing sound waves into electrical signals that are processed by the auditory nervous system. The semicircular canals are responsible for detecting rotational movement and the tympanic membrane (eardrum) and malleus are part of the middle ear and are involved in transmitting sound vibrations to the inner ear.
