PDF-(BOOS)-Evolution of the Vertebrate Auditory System (Springer Handbook of Auditory Research,

The function of vertebrate hearing is served by a surprising variety of sensory structures in the different groups of fish amphibians reptiles birds and mammals This book discusses the origin specialization and functional properties of sensory hair cells beginning with environmental constraints on acoustic systems and addressing in detail the evolutionary history behind modern structure and function in the vertebrate ear Taking a comparative approach chapters are devoted to each of the vertebrate groups outlining the transition to land existence and the further parallel and independent adaptations of amniotic groups living in air The volume explores in depth the specific properties of hair cells that allowed them to become sensitive to sound and capable of analyzing sounds into their respective frequency components Evolution of the Vertebrate Auditory System is directed to a broad audience of biologists and clinicians from the level of advanced undergraduate students to professionals interested in learning more about the evolution structure and function of the ear. 5 ELECTIVE Supporting Course 1 Total Credits 1415 Total Credits 165 Semester 5 Fall Credits Semester 6 Spring Credits BIOL 472 Mammalian Physiology or BIOL 4XX 3 BIOL 472 or BIOL 4XX 3 CHEM 213B Laboratory in Orga nic Chemistry Bioscience or CHEM office@springer.eu| www.springer.euHans-Springer-Strasse 2 | A-9360 Friesach| T +43 4268 2581-0 | F +43 4268 2581-45www.springer.euPage 1Copyright bySpringer Maschinenfabrik AG 2009 The wood-mechanisi Vertebrate Pests: Damage on stored foods Organisation: United States Department of Agriculture ( USDA ) Author: Joe E.

Knowledge about the structure and function of the inner ear is vital to an understanding of vertebrate hearing. This volume presents a detailed overview of the mammalian cochlea from its anatomy and physiology to its biophysics and biochemistry. The nine review chapters, written by internationally distinguished auditory researchers, provide a detailed and unified introduction to sound processing in the cochlea and the steps by which the ensuing signals are prepared for the central nervous system. The following abbreviations are used for the tests/checklists utilized most often in the studies: Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC1), Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC2), Behavior Summarized Evaluation ( Perspectives on Auditory Research celebrates the last two decades of the Springer Handbook in Auditory Research. Contributions from the leading experts in the field examine the progress made in auditory research over the past twenty years, as well as the major questions for the future. Birds and reptiles have long fascinated investigators studying hearing and the auditory system. The highly evolved auditory inner ear of birds and reptiles shares many characteristics with the ear of mammals. Thus, the two groups are essential in understanding the form and function of the vertebrate and mammalian auditory systems. Comparative Hearing: Birds and Reptiles covers the broad range of our knowledge of hearing and acoustic communication in both groups of vertebrates. This volume addresses the many similarities in their auditory systems, as well as the known significant differences about hearing in the two groups.
