someone makes a loud noise, and it scares you. Use complete sentences to put the following terms in order to describe how the body processes the sound and reacts: central nervous system sensory organs and sensory receptors.
When someone makes a loud noise, the sound waves travel through the air and enter the outer ear. From there, the sound waves cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are then transmitted through the middle ear bones and into the inner ear. The inner ear contains the sensory organs, specifically the cochlea, which is responsible for converting the sound vibrations into electrical impulses. These electrical impulses are then transmitted to the sensory receptors in the auditory nerve. The auditory nerve carries these signals to the brain's central nervous system, specifically the auditory cortex, where the sound is processed and recognized. Additionally, upon hearing the loud noise, the body's central nervous system also triggers a physical reaction, such as an increased heart rate or a jump in response to being startled.
