HEARING (and Balance) Hearing: Audition Balance: Vestibular System

Sound Changes in AIR PRESSURE Amplitude = Loudness Frequency = Pitch 20-20,000 Hz ,000 Hz ,000 Hz 1-20,000 Hz

Sound Sound is a vibration that travels as a wave through an elastic medium, such as air.

Hearing Humans can hear frequencies between 50 and 20,000 cycles per second (Hz) 40Hz - 20,000Hz

Hearing Elephants and many whales can hear lower sounds (14-35Hz and 10-40Hz, respectively) These low frequencies permit communication over great distances, particularly in water

Limits of Hearing Processing speed can limit the ability to distinguish rapid variations in sound For example, the calls of Orca whales have rapid variations in pitch and rhythm that we cannot detect.

Echolocation Emitting calls and hearing bounce-back Found in bats, dolphins, shrews, most whales, few birds

The Ear

High frequency Low frequency Hair Cells!

The Ear to Brain Localizing Sound: 1.Time difference to reach ears. 2.Intensity difference at each ear. One vs two ears?
