The hair cells are arranged in four rows: 

Three rows of outer hair cells (20,000)

One row of inner hair cells (3500)

The processes of the hair cells are bathed in endolymph, whereas their bases are bathed in perilymph, this arrangement is necessary for the normal production of

receptor potentials

Except in the cochlea, the kinocilium, is a true but nonmotile cilium with nine pairs of microtubules around its circumference and a central pair of microtubules. one of the largest processes and has a clubbed end. 

(The kinocilium is lost from the hair cells of the cochlea in adult mammals)
