“…If the stimulating frequency is higher than the inverse of the auditory nerve's refractory period the action potentials elicited will miss some peaks of the stimulus. The subharmonic vesicle release observed in Figure 16 agrees with this effect, and furthermore the appearance of discrete peaks of subharmonic vesicle release suggests quantal and discrete phase shifts of the vesicle release events, which when their effects are summed across the entire cochlear nerve will provide phase locking effects as shown in previous studies [ 51 ].…”

“…In combining the scala vestibuli and scala media into a single compartment we ignore Reissner's membrane. At least within the basal and middle turns of the cochlea we can justify this simplification, for the impedance of Reissner's membrane there is well below that of the basilar membrane (Bekesy 1960). In the apical turn, however, the impedances of the two membranes become comparable with largely unknown consequences for cochlear hydrodynamics.…”

“…This vibration occurs according to the frequency of the sound waves that reach the inner ear. This is one of the mechanisms responsible for the selectivity of the cochlear frequency (Von Békésy, 1960).…”
