Explain the difference between place theory and frequency theory in regard to perception of pitch.

Place theory states that the perception of pitch depends on what area of the basilar membrane is vibrating. In other words, the frequency of tone that is detected by the brain depends on which area of the basilar membrane is most actively vibrating upon encountering sound. Frequency theory claims that the perception of pitch depends on the rate at which the entire basilar membrane vibrates. The whole basilar membrane vibrates in response to sound. A higher pitch is heard when the basilar membrane vibrates at a higher frequency.
