How We Hear

Sound is a vibration that travels through air to our ears. The ear has: Outer ear (pinna) โ€” collects sound, like a funnel. Ear canal โ€” channels sound inward. Eardrum โ€” vibrates when sound hits it. Ossicles (3 tiny bones: malleus, incus, stapes) โ€” amplify vibrations. Cochlea (snail-shaped) โ€” converts vibrations to nerve signals. Auditory nerve โ€” sends signals to brain, which interprets them as sound.
