Answer:

1) Basilar membrane

2) Stereocilia or hair cells

3) Nerve cells

4) Auditory

5) Temporal lobe

Explanation:

Basilar membrane: located inside of the cochlea which is located in the inner ear. This membrane separates two tubes that is filled with liquid which is also important for hearing.  

Hair cells: Connected to the basilar membrane and they acts as sensory receptors which can catch movements (ripples) in the basilar membrane and pass this message to the neurons.

Nerve cells: One of the main cell types in the brain, which are responsible for signal transfer.

Auditory cortex: This part of the brain is located in temporal lobe and handles the auditory information.
