Explain how the human ear works

Answer»



Solution :The human EAR consists of three parts - outer ear, middle ear and inner ear
`**` Outer ear : This is also called .pinna.. It collects the sound from the surroundingand DIRECTOR it towards auditory canal.
`**` Middle ear : The sound reached the end of the auditory canal where there is a THIN membrane called EARDRUM or tympanic membrane. The sound wave set this membrane to vibrate.
These vibrations are amplified by three small bones. hammer, anvil and stirrup.
`**` Inner ear :These vibrations reach the COCHLEA in the inner ear and are converted into electrical signalswhich are sent to the brain by the auditorynerve and the brain interprets them as sound.
