The Organ of Corti is the sensory receptor inside the cochlea which holds the hair cells, the nerve receptors for hearing. The mechanical energy from movement of the middle ear bones pushes in a membrane (the oval window) in the cochlea. This force moves the cochlea's fluids that, in turn, stimulate tiny hair cells.
In the inner ear, is a spiral organ called the cochlea, and this liquid filled organ is tapered and along its length are a large number of small sensory hairs.These small hairs cause a signal to be generated in the cell supporting the hair and this we interpret as sound.he hearing receptors are also known as hair cells. These are auditory receptors that transform vibrations causes by sound waves into neural impulses that are then transmitted â¦ to the brain through the auditory nerve.
