On the Origin of Microphonic Potentials in the Inner Ears of Sauropsids

  • Chapter
Symposium Mechanoreception

Abstract

This work is based mainly on investigations of the dependence on metabolism of the cochlear potentials of birds (Necker, 1970), and of Caiman (Kâuffmann and Schwartzkopff, 1971; Kauffmann, 1974). The inner ears of these representatives of the group of sauropsids are very similar to each other (Retzius, 1884).

Supported by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft Schwerpunktprogramm “Rezeptor-physiologie” (grant to J. Schwartzkopff).
