text: Yo, listen up, I got some knowledge to drop,
  'Bout the hearing organ, don't you dare stop.
  Sensory hair cells, they be doin' their thing,
  Convertin' sound vibrations, makin' neurons sing.
  
  They turn it to action potentials, auditory nerve on fire,
  But hold up, there's more, let me take you higher.
  Molecular motors in the outer hair cells, they the real deal,
  Boostin' the process, enhancin' the feel.
  
  Passive mechanical properties, gotta mention those,
  Stiffness, mass, friction, how the story goes.
  Organ of Corti, with structures inside,
  We used confocal imaging, let the data slide.
  
  Low-frequency regions of the cochlea under the scope,
  Mechanical properties, let's take a dope note.
  Radial strain, a key parameter we did find,
  0.1% near inner hair cells, that's the grind.
  
  0.3% near the third row of outer hair cells, no joke,
  When sound hits moderate, they start to evoke.
  The strain's caused by differences, motion trajectories collide,
  Inner and outer hair cells, movin' side by side.
  
  Outer hair cells got that perpendicular flow,
  While inner hair cells, they vibrate and glow.
  These differences lead to deformation, let me explain,
  The reticular lamina takin' the strain.
  
  It connects the outer and inner cells, bridgin' the gap,
  Helpin' us understand how the motors adapt.
  Outer hair cells, they control auditory sensitivity,
  These results, they bring a whole new intensity.
