What are the 3 anatomical subdivisions of the ear?
The inner, outer and middle. The outer ear is the bit stuck to the side of your head and the ear canal down to the ear drum. The middle ear is an air-filled cavity behind the ear drum, where the 3 smallest bones in the human body are found. The inner ear is made up of the hearing organ (the cochlea) and the organ responsible for sensing motion and gravity which helps us balance.
What channel connects to the outer ear to the inner ear?
the stirrup connects to the outer ear to the inner ear
What is a tightly stretched membrane separates the outer ear from the inner ear?
The tympanic membrane, also known as the eardrum, is a tightly stretched membrane that separates the outer ear from the middle ear. It plays a crucial role in transmitting sound vibrations from the outer ear to the middle ear.
What occurs when sound waves don't pass through the outer to the inner ear?
You don't hear anything. They don't actually have to get there through the outer ear. If your ear is plugged, or if your 'tympanum' (ear drum) is broken, the vibrations can conduct through the bone that you feel behind your ear. But they do have to get to the inner ear somehow. If vibrations don't reach the cochlea in the inner ear, then you don't hear anything.
Why should you never put any sharp thing or object in your ears?

Exterior cartilaginous portion of the outer ear is called?
The exterior cartilaginous portion of the outer ear is called the pinna or auricle. It helps collect sound waves and direct them into the ear canal for processing by the ear drum and inner ear structures.
How does sound pass through the ears?
Sound waves enter the outer ear and travel down the ear canal to the ear drum. The ear drum vibrates in response to the sound waves, which then pass through the middle ear bones (ossicles) and into the inner ear. In the inner ear, the sound waves are converted to electrical signals that are sent to the brain via the auditory nerve.
Is the external ear surrounding the outer end of the tube that leads to the ear drum?
