Photomicrograph of the termination of a labeled MOC branch in the organ of Corti, from the second turn of the cochlea. A total of 44 outer hair cells (OHCs) were innervated by this branch (15 in row 1, 23 in row 2, and 6 in row 3), and it formed a total of 64 endings (26 in row 1, 30 in row 2, and 8 in row 3). Two other branches of this axon terminated out of the field of view in smaller patches apically. This labeled axon was from an MOC Ipsi unit with a CF of 4.21 kHz.
