Auditory System Anatomy - Neurophysiologic Considerations. 1  The complex chain of nerve cells in the auditory system helps to process and relay auditory information, encoded in the form of nerve impulses, directly to the highest cerebral levels in the cortex of the brain. To some extent, different properties of the auditory stimulus are conveyed along distinct parallel pathways.
The Auditory Nerve, also known as the Cochlear or acoustic nerve (part of the vestibulocochlear or 8th cranial nerve), is a sensory nerve, it is found in the head and transmits information from the inner ear (cochlea) to the brain in the form of sound (acoustic) energy that impinges on the ear drum (tympanic membrane).he Auditory Nerve, also known as the Cochlear or acoustic nerve (part of the vestibulocochlear or 8th cranial nerve), is a sensory nerve, it is found in the head and transmits information from the inner ear (cochlea) to the brain in the form of sound (acoustic) energy that impinges on the ear drum (tympanic membrane).
