A patient is diagnosed with a form of hearing loss caused by long-term exposure to loud noise, which has damaged the sensory receptor cells within their fluid-filled, snail-shaped inner ear structure. While sound vibrations are successfully transmitted through the outer and middle ear, the patient cannot perceive sounds because the necessary signals are not being generated. Which specific process is most directly impaired in this patient?
