Abstract:
:The structure of the tectorial membrane of the chick was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), using standard techniques, and, for the first time, by studying unfixed tectorial membranes with video-enhanced light microscopy techniques (AVEC-DIC). The SEM pictures show a widely varying morphology, ranging from a fully perforated tectorial membrane to a completely closed upper boundary, with a smooth surface. Based on several indicators, it is concluded that the latter presents the more natural state. This was confirmed by the results of the AVEC-DIC technique, which show a highly homogeneous structure. In contrast to the bulk of the tectorial membrane, its lower surface shows discrete structures, especially regularly oriented fibril bundles.

HEARING RESEARCH文献大全abstract::It is widely appreciated that the key predictor of the pitch of a sound is its periodicity. Neural structures which support pitch perception must therefore be able to reflect the repetition rate of a sound, but this alone is not sufficient. Since pitch is a psychoacoustic property, a putative cortical code for pitch m...
