(December 2014). The organ of Corti, or spiral organ, is the receptor organ for hearing and is located in the mammalian cochlea. Described as a masterpiece of cellular micro-architecture, this highly varied strip of epithelial cells allows for transduction of auditory signals into nerve impulses' action potential.December 2014).
