when you hear something there are two

when you hear something there are two major pathways that sound travels

major pathways that sound travels

major pathways that sound travels through for your brain to reach an

through for your brain to reach an understanding of the irrelevance or

understanding of the irrelevance or

understanding of the irrelevance or importance of that sound the first is

importance of that sound the first is

importance of that sound the first is the primary auditory pathway which

the primary auditory pathway which

the primary auditory pathway which carries messages exclusively from the

from there the message is delivered to

from there the message is delivered to the superior colliculus which is a role

the superior colliculus which is a role

the superior colliculus which is a role in the localization of sound the message

in the localization of sound the message

in the localization of sound the message is then delivered to the medial

your motor responses to that sound so

your motor responses to that sound so your vocal responses lastly the message

your vocal responses lastly the message

your vocal responses lastly the message ends up in the primary auditory cortex

ends up in the primary auditory cortex
