Pinna - a cartilage flap that directs sound waves into the ear
Tympanic membrane - responsible for turning sound waves into vibrations
Ossicles - the three bones inside the ear that help to amplify sounds
Cochlea - Fluid filled sac that converts sound into nerve impulses through way of tiny hairs located on the walls of the cochlea
Semicircular canals - Used for balance control
What three bones make up the ossicles? The malleus, the incus, and the stapes.
What is the function of hairs in the ear? To process sound vibrations into nerve impulses.
