mistake in frequency labeling

[edit]

This is a great illustration of the middle/inner ear; however, it appears that the frequencies are labeled backward. High-frequency sounds stimulate the basal end of the cochlea, whereas low-frequency sounds stimulate the apical end. The labeling of 20 Hz and 20kHz should be switched. 74.138.14.81 17:49, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
