During the 7th-21st (hatching) days, hair cells [HC] of the embryonic chick transform from an undifferentiated epithelium into cylindrically-shaped tall hair cells (THC), pitcher-shaped short hair cells (SHC) or intermediate hair cells that share structural characteristics of the first 2. By the 11th day hair cell types are unambiguous. Hairs (stereocilia and a kinocilium) were 1st identified on the 7th day and resembled the adult pattern on the 13th. The nucleus occupies relatively less volume as hair cells increase in size, becoming positioned centrally in THC and basally in SHC. Nucleoli, which are prominent throughout development, remain conspicuous even in newly hatched chicks. The cuticular cone begins to form on the 11th day. By the 10th day, sensory nerve endings synapse on the bases of the HC, which by the 11th day develop synaptic bars. Although efferent neurites were in evidence as early as the 11th day, synaptic contacts and their cisterns were identified by the 19th day but may form earlier. Supporting cells transform from cylindrically to flask-shaped cells with constricted necks and may secrete at least a portion of the tectorial membrane.
