What? What! Image of the Week – July 16, 2018
CIL:39012 – http://cellimagelibrary.org/images/39012
Description: A scanning electron microscope image of the sensory hair bundle of a single hair cell from a terrapin’s hearing organ in the inner ear. Vibrations made by sound cause the hairs to be moved back and forth, alternately stimulating and inhibiting the cell. When the cell is stimulated it causes nerve impulses to form in the auditory nerve, sending messages to the brain.
