*Frequency Tuning*
Each point along the basilar membrane oscillates a different amount,
depending on the frequency of the sound. Points near the oval window, at
the start, oscillate the largest amount in response to high-frequency
tones. Points near the helicotrema oscillate by the largest amount in
response to low-frequency tones.
