Solution
The correct option is C Scala media (Cochlear canal)
D. The Organ of Corti is a kind of sensory epithelium. It is an organ of the inner ear contained within the scala media of the cochlea. It is a cellular layer on the basilar membrane, in which sensory hair cells are powered by the potential difference between the perilymph and the endolymph. The primary function of the organ of Corti is the transduction of auditory signals. Sound waves enter the ear via the auditory canal and cause a vibration of the tympanic membrane. So the correct option is D.
