Flashcards

Frequency and Wavelength Relationship

Frequency and wavelength are inversely related; as one increases, the other decreases.

Effect of Right Optic Tract Damage

Damage to the right optic tract causes vision loss in the left visual field of both eyes.

Perilymph Similarity

Perilymph, found in the inner ear, shares similar composition to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

Tensor Tympani Nerve Supply

The tensor tympani muscle is innervated by the trigeminal nerve (CN V).
