    Shaded cells represent articulations that are judged to be impossible or not distinctive. Vowel letters are also grouped in pairs – of unrounded and rounded vowel sounds – with these pairs also arranged from front on the left to back on the right, and from maximal closure at top to minimal closure at bottom.

  4. Dark cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_cell

    Dark cells are specialized nonsensory epithelial cells found on either side of the vestibular organs (the utricle and the ampullae of the semicircular canals [1]) and lining the endolymphatic space. These dark-cell areas in the vestibular organ are structures involved in the production of endolymph , an inner ear fluid, secreting potassium ...

    Sometimes apical is used exclusively for an articulation that involves only the tip of the tongue and apicolaminal for an articulation that involves both the tip and the blade of the tongue. [3] However, the distinction is not always made and the latter one may be called simply apical, especially when describing an apical dental articulation.

    Stereocilia (or stereovilli or villi) are non-motile apical cell modifications. They are distinct from cilia and microvilli, but are closely related to microvilli. They form single "finger-like" projections that may be branched, with normal cell membrane characteristics. They contain actin.

    The stereocilia then convert these vibrations into nerve impulses which are taken up to the brain to be interpreted. Two of the three fluid sections are canals and the third is the 'organ of Corti' which detects pressure impulses that travel along the auditory nerve to the brain. The two canals are called the vestibular canal and the tympanic ...
