Inner Ear: Dye Injection Reveals Peripheral Origins of Specific Sensitivities

In the American bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) tracing of functionally identified, dye-filled fibers of the eighth cranial nerve to their peripheral origins has provided the first precise functional overlays for the microstructural maps of inner-ear sensory surfaces.
