1. A speciаlized cell type in а speciаlized envirоnment mediates bоth auditоry and vestibular senses. What are the similarities and differences between these two sensory systems? Your answer should include: (4 pts) i) the frequency ranges covered by the two senses with a mechanistic (physical) explanation for the reasons for the non-overlapping ranges; (4 pts) ii) the mechanical, ionic and synaptic mechanism(s) mediating the transduction of physical forces to afferent action potential frequency; (4 pts) iii) identifying which of the two systems uses cell-based, active amplification, with an explanation of the mechanical, ionic, neuronal and synaptic mechanisms mediating that amplification; and (4 pts) iv) the biochemical mechanisms, including ion channels and other proteins, of adaptation that occurs in this cell type. 2. (4 pts) Sound localization in barn owls relies on two interaural differences. i) What anatomical dimension of the owl’s head determines the sound frequency below which only interaural time differences (ITD) can enable sound localization? and ii) For a large animal (like an elephant), what would you expect that critical frequency to be (higher or lower) compared to that of the owl? Briefly explain.
