constants for the determinations based on 160 cells in each age

A nalytical constants* giving the mean, standard deviation and coefficient of variability 

 unth their respective probable errors for the diameters of the cells and their 

 nuclei of the ganglion spirale in radial vertical section 



Conclusion. For the study of the growth of the nerve cells 

 in the ganglion spirale fourteen age groups were taken and the 

 data obtained from the 160 largest cells in each age group. 

 Besides these, six age groups, representing six cochleas, were 

 examined in cross-sections to determine the form of the ganglion
