THE OUTER EAR
THE PART ATTACHED TO THE SIDE OF THE FACE
MIDDLE EAR
WHERE THE HAMMER AND ANVIL ARE LOCATED
INNER EAR
IS WHERE THE STIRRUP AND COCHLEA ARE FOUND
HOW IT WORKS
- The sound waves cause the eardrum to vibrate which sets the three tiny bones in the middle ear into motion
- The motion of these bones causes the fluid in the inner ear or cochlea to vibrate.
- The vibration of the inner ear fluid causes the hair cells in the cochlea to move.
