cochlea (n)
English Definitions:
cochlea (noun)
the snail-shaped tube (in the inner ear coiled around the modiolus) where sound vibrations are converted into nerve impulses by the organ of Corti
cochlea (Noun)
The complex, spirally coiled, tapered cavity of the inner ear in which sound vibrations are converted into nerve impulses.
Cochlea
The cochlea is the auditory portion of the inner ear. It is a spiral-shaped cavity in the bony labyrinth, in humans making 2.5 turns around its axis, the modiolus. A core component of the cochlea is the Organ of Corti, the sensory organ of hearing, which is distributed along the partition separating fluid chambers in the coiled tapered tube of the cochlea. The name is derived from the Latin for snail shell, which in turn is from the Greek κοχλίας kokhlias, from κόχλος kokhlos in reference to its coiled shape; the cochlea is coiled in mammals with the exception of monotremes.
