1. But why is that particular area of the cortex designated the auditory cortex? 2. Interestingly, this is also true of mammals from which the auditory cortex has been removed. 3. Does it see or does it hear with its auditory cortex? 4. For reasons that are not yet well understood, cells in their primary auditory cortex cannot detect rapid transition phonemes, she said. 5. From there they enter the primary auditory cortex, which contains cells that specialize in particular frequencies. 6. He was the first researcher to make electrophysiological recordings from single nerve cells in the part of the brain that deals with hearing, the auditory cortex. 7. Impulses are transmitted into auditory cortex, where specialized regions, especially in right cerebral hemisphere, are thought to analyze musical features like pitch and timbre. 8. In healthy people, areas of the auditory cortex that respond to different sound frequencies are of similar size. 9. In nonstutterers, parts of the auditory cortex also light up, presumably because they are busy monitoring their own speech. 10. It meant that they were seeing lights with their rewired auditory cortex, Sur said. |
