In woodpeckers, the cochlear windows show functional specialization. The small membrane of the round window is attached to a special bony plate of the columella. This arrangement of coupled windows probably increases power dissipation at the fenestral boundaries and so dampens impulsive mechanical disturbances.
在啄木鸟中,耳蜗窗表现出功能特化。圆窗的小膜附着在听小骨的一块特殊骨板上。这种耦合窗的排列可能会增加窗边界处的能量耗散,从而抑制脉冲性机械干扰。
