figure 4: neural tuning curve normal hearing. the traveling wave along basilar membrane peaks @ different places along it, depending on whether sound low or high frequency. due mass , stiffness of basilar membrane, low frequency waves peak in apex, while high frequency sounds peak in basal end of cochlea. therefore, each position along basilar membrane finely tuned particular frequency. these tuned frequencies referred characteristic frequencies (cf). if sound entering ear displaced characteristic frequency, strength of response basilar membrane progressively lessen. fine tuning of basilar membrane created input of 2 separate mechanisms. first mechanism being linear passive mechanism, dependent on mechanical structure of basilar membrane , surrounding structures. second mechanism non-linear active mechanism, dependent on functioning of ohcs, , general physiological condition of cochlea itself. base , apex of basilar membrane differ in stiffness , width, cause basilar membrane respond v
