The cochlear hair cells are located in the organ of Corti, a small organ found in the scala media within the cochlea in the ear. Hair cells sit on the basilar membrane and have an overhead cover called the reticular lamina. Two structures called the rods of Corti support the reticular lamina and the basilar membrane.
Tuckerman Ravine. Tuckerman Ravine is a glacial cirque sloping eastward on the southeast face of Mt. Washington, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.
