73. Place theory states that _____. 
A. in vision, depth perception occurs because of a combination of binocular and monocular cues
B. in vision, color perception occurs because of different types of cones
C. in hearing, a cluster of neurons “volley” neural impulses in rapid succession.
D. in hearing, each frequency produces vibrations at a particular spot on the basilar membrane.

74. Which of the following is true of place theory? 
A. Place theory states that the perception of a sound’s frequency depends on how often the auditory nerve fires.
B. Place theory adequately explains low-frequency sounds but not high-frequency sounds.
C. Place theory states that color perception is produced by three types of cone receptors in the retina.
D. Place theory states that low-frequency vibrations maximally displace areas of the membrane closer to the tip of the cochlea.

76. Which of the following statements about cochlear implants is false? 
A. A cochlear implant is a small electronic device that is surgically implanted in the ear and head.
B. Cochlear implants, like hearing aids, work by amplifying sound.
C. Cochlear implants stimulate whatever working auditory nerves the recipient has in his or her cochlea with electronic impulses.
D. Cochlear implants work best if they are inserted shortly after hearing loss.

77. _____ best explains those high-frequency sounds (above 1,000 times per second). 
A. A combination of frequency and place theory
B. Place theory
C. Decibel theory

78. Which of the following is true of auditory processing in the brain? 
A. Auditory information moves down the auditory pathway via electrochemical transmission in a less complex manner than does visual information in the visual pathway.
B. In the auditory system, information about sound moves from the auditory nerve to the hair cells of the inner ear.
C. Most of the auditory information from the left ear goes to the right side of the brain, but some also goes to the left side of the brain.
D. Many synapses occur in the ascending auditory pathway, with all fibers proceeding directly to the hemisphere on the same side as the ear of reception.
