55. which statements are true about the Auditory Function a. Sound waves are funneled by the auricle down the external acoustic meatus, causing the tympanic membrane to vibrate. b. The tympanic membrane vibrations are passed along the auditory ossicles to the oval window of the inner ear. c. Movement of the stapes in the oval window causes the perilymph, vestibular membrane, and endolymph to vibrate, producing movement of the basilar membrane. d.Movement of the basilar membrane causes bending of the stereocilia of inner hair cells in the spiral organ.
