Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 46, No. 3, Pg. 11:
Researchers in the WHOI Computerized Scanning and Imaging Facility produced this high resolution CT scan image of a human cochlea, an organ inside the inner ear, as well as cochlea images from a dozen other different land and marine mammals. Scientists compared the curvature of the cochleas to uncover a secret about why they have spiral shapes.
