Anatomy - Hearing (Part 2) - Functions of Cochlea & Organ of Corti

The video tutorial explains the journey of sound waves from the external environment through the ear, focusing on the anatomy and function of the cochlea, vestibular and tympanic ducts, and the basilar membrane. It details how different sound frequencies affect the basilar membrane and how these vibrations are translated into signals that the brain interprets as sound. The tutorial also covers the primary auditory pathway, describing how sound information travels from the cochlea to the brain.
