The cochlea, located in the inner ear, is responsible for converting sound waves into electrical signals that can be interpreted by the brain. This process occurs through the movement of tiny hair cells within the cochlea in response to the vibrations produced by sound waves.
Yes, the pinna is the visible external part of the ear that helps collect sound waves and funnel them into the ear canal. It plays a role in directing sound towards the ear drum for processing.

gathers sound waves.
The fleshy part of your ear, called the pinna or auricle, helps to collect and funnel sound waves into the ear canal. It also assists in localizing the source of a sound and provides some protection to the ear canal.

External (outer) ear.
The pinna of the ear collects sound waves. This is the part you see on the side of the head.
That part is called as ear lobe or the pinna of the ear.
Yes, the pinna is the visible external part of the ear that helps collect sound waves and funnel them into the ear canal. It plays a role in directing sound towards the ear drum for processing.
The outer ear, specifically the ear canal and the eardrum (tympanic membrane), traps and funnels sound waves towards the middle ear for processing.
The tympanic membrane, also known as the eardrum, is the part of the ear that converts sound waves into vibrations. When sound waves reach the eardrum, it vibrates and transmits these vibrations to the middle ear.
Cochlea is the part of inner ear, which detects sound waves.
The Cochlea, but techinically it's the inner ear.
The auricle or pinna of the outer ear acts like a horn to capture the sound waves which are then tunneled into the auditory canal and strike the tympanic membrane (eardrum).
