impulses that are sent to the brain.

Auditory Nerve: After processing in the cochlea, the electrical signals travel along the auditory nerve to the brain.
Once these signals reach the brain, they are interpreted as the sounds we hear. Our brains can differentiate between
various frequencies and amplitudes, allowing us to perceive both pitch and loudness accurately

•Hearing is a complex and fascinating process that demonstrates how our sensory organs and brain work together to make sense
of the world around us. Our ability to hear and recognize sounds is crucial for communication, enjoyment of music, and our overall
understanding of the environment.
• frequency. This theory is called the place theory of hearing, and it suggests that the perception of pitch depends on which area
of the cochlea is most stimulated. High-frequency sounds cause vibrations in a specific part of the cochlea, close to the oval
window, while low-frequency sounds cause vibrations in a different part farther along the cochlea. Thus, the place theory
