1. audition The sense or act of hearing. Draw a bow across a vio-
lin, and you will unleash the energy of sound waves. Air
molecules, each bumping into the next, create waves of
compressed and expanded air, like the ripples on a pond
circling out from a tossed stone. As we swim in our ocean
of moving air molecules, our ears detect these brief air
pressure changes.

The channel located in the outer ear that funnels sound
waves from the pinna to the tympanic membrane (ear
drum).




7. eardrum The eardrum, or the tympanic membrane, is a thin layer of
tissue that vibrates in response to sound waves.




8. ossicles The ossicles, made up of the three smallest bones in the
human body, the hammer (malleus), the anvil (incus), and
the stirrup (stapes), transfer the sound wave vibrations
from the tympanic membrane to the oval window of the
cochlea.




9. oval window Membrane-covered opening of the cochlea. It vibrates
when it receives the sound waves and causes the fluid
inside the cochlea to move.




10. Middle ear cham- The chamber between the eardrum and cochlea con-
ber taining three tiny bones (hammer, anvil, and stirrup) that
concentrate the vibrations of the eardrum on the cochlea's
oval window
