In that year, German inventor Karl Benz built the Benz Patent-Motorwagen. Cars did not become widely available until the early 20th century. One of the first cars that was accessible to the masses was the 1908 Model T, an American car manufactured by the Ford Motor Company.ars did not become widely available until the early 20th century.

The organ of Corti is located in the cochlea of the inner ear between the vestibular duct and the tympanic duct and is composed of mechanosensory cells, known as hair cells.he function of the organ of Corti is to transduce auditory signals and maximize the hair cellsâ extraction of sound energy. It is the auricle and middle ear that act as mechanical transformers and amplifiers so that the sound waves end up with amplitudes 22 times greater than when they entered the ear.
There are six distinct sensory organs in the mammalian inner ear: the three cristae of the semicircular canals, the two maculae of the saccule and utricle, and the organ of Corti of the cochlea (Fig. 1).The cristae and the maculae are vestibular organs that respond to angular and linear acceleration, respectively. boundary model has been proposed to account for how the different sensory organs of the inner ear are specified 12. This model postulates that the different sensory organs of the inner ear form at, or in proximity to, the boundaries between a small number of different compartments.
