CMD305 Chapter Notes - Chapter Module 3 HW: Semicircular Canals, Mastoid Antrum, Internal Carotid Artery
Document Summary
Please type all answers and upload: name the functions of the outer ear. The canal forms and s-shaped curve ending at the tympanic membrane: describe the binaural cues for localization of sounds. Localization cues created by differences in sounds arriving at the right ear and left ear. They are the primary cues for azimuth estimation. They are created by interaural differences in the intensity and arrival time of sounds between ears. Localization cues created by differences in sounds arriving at the right ear and left ear are binaural localization cues. For higher frequencies there is absorption of sound energy by a solid medium (head). This would create a head shadow: what is the role of the human pinna in sound localization (describe two tasks for which cues from the pinna are used. ) They have sound enhancing effects and it acts as a one-quarter wavelength resonator: name the functions of the middle ear.
