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. Although it draws hikers throughout the year, and skiers throughout the winter, it is best known for the many spring skiers who ascend it on foot and ski down the steep slope from early April into July.
Tucker is a census-designated place in DeKalb County, Georgia, United States. The population was 26,532 at the 2000 Census. Although central Tucker, also known as Main Street Tucker, is laid out as a planned railroad town, it has never been formally incorporated. Municipal services such as fire, police, water, and schools are provided by DeKalb County. If incorporated, Tucker would be the second largest city in the county after Dunwoody (excluding Atlanta which is mostly in Fulton County). An exploratory committee formed by the Tucker Civic Association researched the possibilities of incorporating Tucker as a new city in 1996 and 1997.
