The ear is divided into 3 major areas, which include all of the following except:
outer, (external), ear
middle ear
inner ear
third ear
The external and middle ear are only involved with hearing, while the inner ear is involved with both hearing and maintaining your ____________,
touch
harmony
equilibrium
musical memory
The pinna, the outer part of the ear we can see, catches sound waves and funnels them into the external acoustic meatus (auditory canal). The sound waves travel down the meatus and then collide with the tympanic membrane, commonly known as the _________.
cochlea
cornea
ear drum
snare drum
The hearing part of the inner ear is the ___________, (is named this because of its spiral shape, resembling a snail shell.)
tympanic membane
cochlea
pinna
auditory canal

circadian rhythm
sense of humor
balance (equilibrium)

Which of the following statements is true regarding hearing?
air waves cause vibrations in the tympanic membrane which moves the malleus, incus and stapes on a pivot which, in turn moves the fluid within the vestibule moving hair cells in the crista ampullaris
air waves cause vibrations in the tympanic membrane which moves the malleus, incus and stapes on a pivot which, in turn moves the fluid within the cochlea moving hair cells in the organ of Corti
air waves cause vibrations in the tympanic membrane which moves the malleus, incus and stapes on a pivot which, in turn moves the fluid within the cochlea moving hair cells in the maculae
air waves cause vibrations in the tympanic membrane which moves the malleus, incus and stapes on a pivot which, in turn moves the fluid within the vestibule moving hair cells in the organ of Corti
