Movement will be brought about in touch me not plants by the action of various chemicals present at the base of the leaf stalk. 

Explanation:

The leaves of touch me not plant stay upright due to turgor pressure. It is exerted by the water present within its cells. This pressure applies force against the cell wall enabling the plant to remain stiff.

When there is an external disturbance , parts of the plant releases certain chemicals including potassium ions that causes water to diffuse out of cells. This releases the turgor pressure and causes the leaves to shrink.

Receptors for hearing are located in the _______.

Inga [223]

Cochlea.

The part of the ear where sound wave compressions and rarefactions cause the eardrum to vibrate is the middle ear. The 8th nerve in the inner ear actually converts the mechanical energy to electrical energy for transmitting to the brain. A membrane called the tympanic membrane separates the middle ear from the outer ear. Whenever a sound reaches the ear, it creates a sound wave that creates vibration in the eardrum. The pressure when high pushes the membrane inwards while low pressure sound waves helps the eardrum to come outwards. 

These sound waves are then transduced when it reaches the cochlea where hair-like structures interprets the sensory information and is relayed to the brain.
